SCC students are allowed to download the most recent version of Microsoft Office (via Office 365) on up to five devices. With Office 365, you can install the latest version of Microsoft Office on multiple PCs, Macs, and tablets so you can work any way you want.
Instructions for Microsoft Office Download
Some instructors may use a PowerPoint plugin called Office Mix to add interactivity to their PowerPoint presentations. If instructors use this feature, the presentation is delivered online (not in the PowerPoint program) and you will be prompted to log in with your SCC account information (same as you use to access SCC email). See instructions below

It is recommended that you download the newer version of Office via your FREE Office 365 download option mentioned above. Since this is provided to all students, faculty may expect you to have it available. If you don't wish to do that and you have an older version of any Microsoft Office product (such as Office 2000, Office XP, or Office 2003), you may wish to download and install the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack. This will allow you to open and work with the files created by your classmates who use the newer Microsoft Office software. The Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack will allow you to work with newer Microsoft Office files, such as .docx (Word) and .xlsx (Excel) files. Please feel free to use the link provided below to obtain the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack.

Please note: if you are enrolled in a Microsoft Applications course that requires the most recent release of Microsoft Office, the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack is not a replacement for the software that is required for these courses. Be sure to see the SCC catalog and/or contact your instructor for more information.
If your instructor uses Word or PowerPoint files and you do not have those programs installed, you can view them by downloading the viewer software below or you can download the free version of Office 365 as mentioned above (preferred).
You could also download the files and open them in your Office 365 account.
