Additional information included in the confirmation email message:
- CCCID Confirmation: The user's unique seven-digit CCCID (three letters + four numbers);

- Self-Service Account Recovery: Information and a hyperlink to the OpenCCC.net website for Account Recovery;
- Need Help? Information and a hyperlink to the online student support site, CCCHelp.info, to access 24/7, online support information.
