Starting Thursday, October 1, UMass Amherst Information Technology (IT) will move the Course and Curriculum Management System (CCMS) behind the campus virtual private network (VPN) to improve security. 

After October 1, users logging in to CCMS must be connected to a secure campus network (wired ethernet or eduroam), or to the university’s VPN if accessing CCMS from off-campus locations. For instructions on downloading and installing the university’s VPN, see the support article.

If you are experiencing issues accessing CCMS while connected to a secure campus network or the VPN, please contact the IT Service Desk: [email protected] or 413-545-9400 Option 1. More ways to get tech help.
