How do I request a new group?

Select the GROUPS icon, from the icon bar in the top right menu bar, and then select CREATE GROUP tab. The request will be sent to the CCRI  Groups Administrator for approval. Groups are approved based on the CCRI groups policy, which you must read before creating a group.  As soon as your request has been approved or rejected, you will receive an e-mail notification, along with an explanation of the decision.
