Getting Started

The Human Resources (HR) on boarding process provides several tasks that you must address before the beginning of the semester. Many of these items can be processed at the New Faculty Orientation.

On boarding process

An IslandID and password are necessary to sign into most University resources. These credentials are issued to employees during the hiring process. Emails explaining the account claim process are sent out 24-48 hours after HR on-boarding steps have completed. After receiving the email from My IslandID, claim your account by following the link below and selecting "New User?".

Note: Faculty and staff will lose access to the IslandID account and Office 365 (including email) on the date of separation from the University.

Claim your IslandID

Upon logging into your TAMU-CC workstation for the first time, it is recommended that you open Microsoft Outlook to setup and use your University email. The University email is the primary avenue of communication for all University business, including correspondence from the Business Office, Financial Aid, Housing and Campus Announcements.

Islander Email

Single Sign-On (SSO) portal contains Human Resources programs such as payroll and leave information. As a new employee you must set up your account with your UIN, provided by Human Resources office. After your IslandID is created, the IslandID should be used to sign into the SSO portal. Employees that separate from the University will revert to using your UIN for former employee data.
