Description
A Person of Interest is a term used to describe a person affiliated with the University who is not a student or an employee who needs access to UMS systems. A POI record in the HR database is required to initiate the creation of an account.
Request a Person of Interest Record by completing and submitting a form for persons who require access to UMS applications prior to the start of employment and/or will not be a UMS employee. Creating a POI record allows the email account to be activated prior to hire and also allows email accounts to be created for non-employees. POI records with email accounts can use their username and password to access applications such as BlackBoard. POI records can also be requested to provide access to mycampus.maine.edu.

- Google Apps account
- Blackboard access authorizations
- mycampus.maine.edu (aka campus employee portal)
