Note the following for RIA Checkpoint, a business database for accountancy:
* RIA is only available on-campus for general users. * RIA is available off-campus only to accounting students (mostly tax accounting students), who have to use a special login procedure to access RIA Checkpoint. This procedure is not for the general public, so it is provided to students via Blackboard by their instructors.
Primary benefit of this procedure is to allow accountancy students to save their work from semester to semester (which they frequently have to do for these classes). Also, RIA needs to verify that only students (and not the accounting firm up the street) is accessing UTC’s subscription. This protects the money UTC spends on behalf of students.
