Why do I Have Multiple Accounts (VT and FBRI)?

At this time, Virginia Tech and the FBRI maintain separate account databases / directories and email systems.  

Virginia Tech Email addresses: jqresearcher@vt.edu

VTCRI Email addresses: jqresearcher@vtc.vt.edu

Your Virginia Tech PID and / or Hokies account provides access to services and systems provided by Virginia Tech such as Banner, Zoom, HR systems, @vt.edu email, Google Suite, Eduroam, and many, many more.   

Your FBRI username and password is used to login to workstations and systems, including email, VPN, file shares, VTCRI-Wireless, and more at the FBRI.   NOTE: Students and Volunteers do not typically have an additional FBRI/VTC email account, only an email address that forwards to their @vt.edu or other external account.
