Curriculum Inventory Management System (CIM)

Course Inventory Management (CIM) is the online platform used to submit curricular actions including, but not limited to, new course proposals, course edits, program edits and course inactivations. 

There are two forms for submitting curricular actions: the Course Management (courseadmin) form, and the Program Management (programadmin) form. Each form focuses on specific actions.

Logging into Course Inventory Management (CIM)

The Course Inventory Management (CIM) system uses FIT's LDAP system to connect, therefore your FIT username and password should work in CIM. When logging in, there are a few things to remember:

  1. Your username should be all lowercase, e.g. firstname_lastname.
  2. Don't include "@fitnyc.edu" on the end of your username.
  3. Do not use the Safari browser, only Google Chrome, or Firefox.
  4. If you have recently updated your password with the FIT system, wait a few hours before logging in, sometimes there is a delay in the connection between CIM and LDAP.
  5. If you are still unable to login, try clearing your cache.
  6. When logging in, be sure not to have your password autofilled, this may input an old password.
