In order to receive initial access to Banner Finance, you will need to complete at least two course requirements. The first course can be accessed either through the Talent@VCU system.
You may self-enroll for this course. In Talent@VCU, the training is named Banner Basic Navigation and System/Data Security. You must complete the quiz after completing the tutorials. If you have any questions or problems concerning access to this course, please contact Learning and Development at traindev@vcu.edu, or call (804) 828-0179.
The employee should have already signed a confidentiality and compliance statement, which is part of the VCU employment orientation. In compliance with VCU's password standard, your Banner password and access are for your use only and cannot be shared with others. See the Technology Services security website for details.
Once the account request reaches the Banner Finance security team, you will be contacted with instructions to enroll in a second required course. In Talent@VCU and Canvas, the course is named Mandatory Fiscal Training: Fiscal Responsibilities and Internal Controls. Once the course is successfully completed, basic Banner Finance access will be granted.
For more topics, reference materials and desktop manuals, go to Banner Finance job aids.
Additional security levels in Banner have different training requirements. Access to the the required Canvas courses will be given at the time of the account request based on the Cherwell Service Desk ticket options. These are not self-enrollment courses.
