Follow-up Request Application

Dear XXXX,

Thank you for your interest in UC Davis' pilot of SmartSite!

During this initial pilot, we are asking all individuals interested in using SmartSite to fill out an application form which is available at http://smartsite.ucdavis.edu, by clicking the "Request a Class or Project Site" link on the left menu bar.

Questions RE: Temporary Affiliate / Researchers

Dear XXXX,

Thanks for your inquiry. At this time, site owners like yourself may provide members outside of the campus community with access to your site, but first will need to make sure these individuals have been granted temporary affiliation. More information about this process is available at:

http://email.ucdavis.edu/forms/files/taf.pdf

Once the temporary affiliate accounts are created via the normal university process, they will automatically be picked up by SmartSite, so the owner of the site (you in this case) will be able to add them as participants.

Instructions for adding participants to your site are available in the "Support & Training" page, in the Tech Tips documentation for the "Section Info" tool.

Please let me know if there's anything else I can help you with.

For news and announcements, please visit smartsite.ucdavis.edu. If you have additional questions about the site creation process, don't hesitate to forward them to us at: smartsite-info@ucdavis.edu.

Technical assistance is available by contacting IT Express, the campus computing Help Desk, at 530-754-HELP. They can also be contacted by e-mail ithelp@ucdavis.edu, or receive walk-in assistance at 182 Shields library.
