Digital Signage

Flat Screen Digital Signs have been installed across the district in order to serve as electronic bulletin boards. The management of this program is a collaboration between Student Life and Leadership, Information Technology and Media Services.  To request that an item be posted, complete the form below at least 5 days in advance to permit time to gather additional information if necessary. 

If you have event information that you would like to have posted but do not have a design yet, we have created a Digital Signage Template for your convenience.

Terms and conditions

Please review our terms and conditions listed below before submitting your posting request. You will be asked to agree to these in the submission form.

Who may post?

College staff, faculty, departments, recognized student organizations, and PCC-affiliated community partners may submit material for posting. Each item must be approved and may only be posted by authorized personnel in the Student Leadership Office or the Facilities Office.

Approved submissions will be posted for up to 3 weeks. Event-related postings will be removed after the date of the event. Slides will be displayed for 30 seconds before transitioning to the next image. Slides are posted in a random order so sequential slide posting is not currently available.
