About the NTID Learning Center (NLC)

The NTID Learning Center, located in 50B-A121, provides a variety of academic resources for NTID students. It has computer work stations, laptop docking stations, study spaces, multimedia facilities, and services like printing and copying. The NLC strives to create a welcoming environment for all students.

Students can use both Windows or MAC computers, making sure everyone has access to the academic software they need. Students can borrow things like calculators, phone chargers, and headsets for use in the center. This is helpful for students who might need extra tools for a short time.

For assistance with writing assignments and Math homework, students can find special tutoring areas in the NLC. To know when these services are available and whether they're in person or on Zoom, click on the the Tutoring section below.

For group work, students can reserve Group Study Areas in the NLC. These areas are meant for teamwork and shared learning experiences, showing that the center values collaboration among students. There is also a Multipurpose Video Lab where students can record videos for assignments or personal use, allowing for creative and technological exploration.

The NLC also takes care of basic needs like printing, copying, and email/scan services. This makes it easy for students to reproduce and share academic materials. To keep students updated, they can follow us on social media for announcements and community building on Facebook at Facebook or Instagram.
