Disclose outside interests in M-Inform in July

It is time to review and update your job-related outside interest disclosures in M-Inform. 

Managers, faculty and staff who are required to annually disclose job-related outside interests will receive an email reminder at the beginning of July followed by periodic reminders until they have logged into M-Inform and completed their disclosure(s).  

Even if you are not engaged in a job-related outside interest, please note that you must still log into M-Inform to complete conflict of interest training and attest to having nothing to disclose. 

The email reminder includes a link to M-Inform with instructions on how to complete your disclosure.

Those not receiving an email reminder are required to disclose job-related outside interests only as they arise.

Additionally, employees are required to keep their M-Inform disclosures up to date throughout the year.
