Dear students,

If you have not already done so, this is an important reminder -- any current RTC student should fill out this mobile contact number verification form immediately. Ensure that you are logged in to your browser with your @rtc.bt email account, not a separate personal gmail or other account, and then follow this link.

Those who have already completed the form, if you are current RTC students with no pending dues, and are not currently on-campus: you should have begun receiving mobile data top-ups on your registered numbers. RTC has been discussing and negotiating with the telecoms (BT and TCell) on special packages for you-- the top-ups are at your respective 499 rate packages, and will also get a 60% additional data bonus to be added shortly (in case the bonus has not come through yet already). The same will apply to any others still on campus once they leave campus. Although our hostels are closing, all students will be able to remain connected and stay current with their studies.

Please DO exercise some discipline in how you use up this data. The validity period is one month, and it would be appropriate to utilize this towards your academic needs only. Do not accidentally use up excessive data -- follow "low-data mode" tips on the RTC Information Technology Support page (https://www.facebook.com/RTCITSupport/). It will be expected that students stay in full engagement with their academics.

This is an interim plan: The government and telecoms are also engaged in developing nationwide plans for ALL students, and these are expected to roll out in April. It is important that you have your correct mobile number registered with us, as we need to submit this information to the Education authorities. 

We assume most mobile numbers are under "prepaid" plans. PLEASE inform back through reply e-mail to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if your number is a "postpaid" number.

For any additional IT support needs (especially with VLE/Cloud/email other academic IT services), please email This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it., visit and message the RTC IT Support facebook mentioned above, or whatsapp/call to 77457548.

With best wishes,

Congratulations for being shortlisted for the Digital Storytelling Contest.

All the participants are encouraged to apply for the study abroad exchange programmes. All the details are available on the announcement posted on my.rtc.bt. Contest applicants will receive extra points during the selection process for the study abroad exchange programmes.

Dear RTC community members: As per the appeal notification from the Ministry of Health, individuals are requested to avoid visiting hospitals and other health facilities if you do not have any illness.  However, anyone should contact health officials via phone if you are experiencing flu-like symptoms; please contact the COVID19 toll-free number hotline 2121 (We appeal everyone to refrain from making prank calls to the hotline numbers – this is unhelpful and calls are traced).

The COVID19 Flu Clinic in Thimphu is open 24/7 and is located at the Helipad, Royal Bhutan Police (RBP) Campus below Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital (JDWNRH).

Due to this, all the RTC students are required to:

2. Attend the online classes and fulfill all the assigned CA tasks. In case if a student does not submit/ delays in any submissions, instructions related to any non-submissions or delayed submissions will be clearly given in the VLE and in general, such cases will be treated with the same rules as generally applied in regular classes at RTC.
3. If any students face difficulty in accessing the RTC VLE page or accessing any of the required online materials, you can call (during office hours) at this number 77333848 for any assistance.

Programme Leaders and respective module tutors should have already emailed you in terms of specific module plans and actions in terms of online class delivery.
