Consultant Account Creation

Service Description:

This Service is used to request accounts for consultants who are not directly employed by Columbus City Schools but works with Columbus City Schools.

Consultant Account Request Process:

1.  A Ticket is created by clicking the Request Consultant Account button on the right-hand side of the page.
2.  An approval is sent to a principal or higher in your management tree for approval. If being submitted by a principal or higher this step will be skipped.
3.  The ticket then goes to IT’s Account Management team for approval.
4.  If approved an Acceptable Use Policy document link will be sent out to be signed. This will be sent to the creator of the ticket, the new consultant, and your manager. This document must be signed by the consultant before the account is created.
5.  Once the AUP has been signed the process of creating the consultant account will begin. You will receive an email containing the consultant’s account information on the consultant’s start date or after the AUP has been signed.
