- NOTE: At some agencies, the HMIS Administrator will submit this form on behalf of the New User.
Upon completing all of the steps, the log in credentials then will be issued.
There are three parts to the training and each part comes with its own video and quiz. Click the buttons below to begin a training module. After you complete and pass all three training modules, please move on to the next step in the process.
There are two required pieces of documentation for new users after they complete the training. The first is the New User Agreement eForm which is a written agreement that binds the user to the rules and polices of the CCHMIS. The second is the User Account Request eForm which informs the CCHMIS System Administrator on what user account permissions are needed for the new user.
