Training Waiver Policy

U-M grants access to its information systems with the understanding that University data must be used responsibly. To ensure that faculty and staff have the knowledge to use the systems correctly, training is required before access is granted. Users must also sign an Access and Compliance Form that states their commitment to use data as governed by law, in accordance with University policy, and in a manner that protects privacy and ensures confidentiality.

Requests for Training Waivers are considered on a case-by-case basis, by reason of previous work experience or prior M-Pathways or PeopleSoft training. If you are given a waiver, you do not need to attend the training course(s) usually required for the type of access you are requesting. However, you will need to complete the Administrative Data Access and Compliance Overview -- eLearning Course, and you will need to sign and submit the Access and Compliance Form at the end of the course to be eligible for system access.

NOTE: Not all training waiver requests are approved. For example, requests for Training Waivers are not approved for M-Pathways Financials roles that are permitted to encumber U-M funds (i.e., P-Card, eProcurement Requisitions, non-PO vouchers, etc).

To request a training course(s) waiver, send a message to mpathwayswaivers@umich.edu. Your message must include the following information:

  • Your name
  • Your uniqname
  • Phone number
  • Name of course for which you are requesting a waiver.
  • Specific criteria you meet that makes you eligible for a waiver.
