myCGS 7.2—All New Registration and Recertification Process, Coming November 15!
myCGS 7.2 introduces a new and improved registration process that makes it easier and faster to register as a new users, as well as a simplified and automated process for Designated Approvers to manage their users. Some highlights of the new version include the following:
- 100% of the registration process is now built into myCGS directly—no more physical registration forms!
- Removal of Authorized Officials from the myCGS registration process. Designated Approvers can now register directly in myCGS without the need to have their company's Authorized Official involved.
- Streamlined registration process for both Designated Approvers and End Users, making it easier than ever to register for myCGS.
- A new self-recertification process for Designated Approvers.
- A redesign of the Recertification screen used by Designed Approvers to recertify their End Users, which makes it simple and easy to recertify a large number of users at once.
- Recertification will now only be needed every 365 days instead of every 90 days (beginning after the next recertification).
