Non-Employee Access Information

RAS Non-Employee Access is live!

 
 With the implementation of RAS Phase II (non-employee) all students, affiliates, auditors, and vendors now are onboarded into the NMHS domain automatically.


This new process will streamline account access as well as system access across NMHS by using automation and technology. With this process we cut out unnecessary paper methods and allow users and approvers to sign electronic documents that are more easily viewable as well as have an easier method to audit.
