Overview

Welcome to Stage 2 of the IMM eSign Cloud Onboarding experience: GETTING STARTED.

The purpose of this stage is twofold: First, it is to build upon the base level of understanding established in Stage 1 and educate you on more of the specific elements of the eSign product and related components. This will enable you to make initial decisions and start to document your system and process.

Secondly, in Lesson 5, you will learn about the installation activity and the initial setup of your eSign Cloud solution. It is imperative that all members of your implementation team engage in all the training elements of Stage 2.

Key Elements of this Stage

Lessons Implementation Workbook Readiness Form Consultation Installation

This stage consists of six lessons each of which contains a video and a supporting guide document. Supporting these lessons is an implementation workbook which is available to download in the Resources section below. After completing the lessons, your team should work together to record information about your new system on the relevant tab(s) of the implementation workbook including user information, document information, signing decisions, etc. Each lesson will guide you on what to include. The workbook will be your guide throughout the training and implementation to capturing key elements about your institutional decisions and implementation details. It will aid you and the IMM project team in the initial eSign implementation project. After you complete the lessons and the workbook you will submit the Stage 2 Readiness Form (also linked below).

Once you have submitted the form with the workbook attached, your IMM project manager will schedule a 30 minute consultation session to address any questions you may have and to ensure your readiness for the installation activity (which is detailed in Lesson 5).
