Ready, steady... go! We've gathered a range of key information to get you started on your first day. Getting set up Getting your first staff card Key staff card information Off-site working Getting online Equipment New joiners will be provided with a University laptop and should always use University equipment in the first instance. In the event that you request to use a personal device for University work, you will need to register your device with CAHSS (login required). If you have an issue logging into your laptop on day 1, please contact your local School IT support. Logging into IT systems From day 1, you will need to use your University Username (UUN) and password to log into our IT systems. Your UUN and Password will be used for things like logging into your laptop, into Office365 and People and Money. The process may vary depending on School or department but generally these should be provided to you on your first day. You will then be prompted to create your own password for future use. Your local HR team will be able to confirm what your UUN is. Logging into People and Money from day 1 Before your first day, you should be sent temporary login details to allow you to get into People and Money and undertake some of the pre-boarding tasks. From day 1 of your contract, these details will no longer work and you will need to use your University Username (UUN) and password. To log into People and Money from day 1, choose the 'Company single sign-on' button. There is no need to enter your user ID or password in the fields below this button. This will take you to the University's login page where you can sign in with your staff login to access the People and Money homepage.
