INSTRUCTIONS FOR PARENT-STUDENT LOGIN

Below are some important tips for technical school parents and student regarding IC student Portal accounts for the ATC. 

FOR PARENTS:

1. It is important for parents trying to access the Parent Portal for technical schools to make sure they are logging into the correct web address (URL) for the Kentucky Tech Systems IC database, and that they ARE NOT trying to use the web address for the high school.

a. Here is the direct link to the KTS IC Parent Portal Login

b. It is also found on the KTS Data Exchange webpage, under the Infinite Campus Login heading.

2. For parents who have NEVER used the KTS IC Parent Portal before:

a. Parents must provide photo identification to the technical school office before any information is provided

b. Technical school office personnel will locate the PARENT in Infinite Campus, NOT THE STUDENT.

d. Scroll down to the middle of the page, under the Person Identifiers heading and look for the Person GUID number.

e. The column under is the Portal Username column.

i. If the Portal Username box is blank – copy down the full Person GUID number and give to the parent. You can write it down or you can copy it and paste it into a Word document, then print the Word document off for the parent. This is code the parent will use as their Activation Key.

ii. If the Portal Username box has a username next to it – tell the parent that they must have previously created an account and give them their username so they can go to the login page and use the Forgot Password hyperlink to retrieve their login information.
