What is Single Sign-On (SSO) Portal?

The SSO stands for Single Sign-On. It is a technology or system that allows employees and students to access multiple online platforms and services using a single login credential. SSO simplifies the login process for CMI users by eliminating the need to remember multiple usernames and passwords for different applications or websites.

First-time Users (Employees)

If you are a first-time student or employee at the college, the Admission Office or HR Department will send a list of new students or employees to the IT Department. They will then set up your SSO account. If you are a student, you can activate your account through myportal.cmi.edu. For employees, please activate your account through sso.cmi.edu.
