• Q. What is the online temporary affiliate (TAF) process?
  • A. The online TAF is the process by which various constituents (visiting faculty, concurrent students, vendors, and others) are granted access to the UC Davis network. By registering for temporary access, the affiliate will have access to our network, a ucdavis.edu email address, and a unique username and password which will be used to verify identity and enable subsequent access privileges to various parts of our network. The online TAF is a service provided by Information and Educational Technology (IET).

  • A. Network access will enable people to share files, use email, and research using the Internet as needed.
