Issue:
As a faculty or staff (including student workers) I need access to Cougar ED (Absorb) to take a course assigned to me.
I am not able to log into Cougar ED.
Environment:
Cougar ED also known as Absorb
Resolution:
Accessing in Cougar ED (Absorb)
New employees need to have paperwork processed in HR and in Budgeting and Payroll before the names are pushed through an overnight process to upload into Absorb. It could take several days for this process to complete depending on the workload for each department.
Student employees need to complete paperwork from the Career Center before they are able to begin work and be uploaded into Absorb.
