Litmos is here!

RCUH welcomes you to Litmos, its new training platform. Litmos brings online learning to you when you want it and where you want it.  A Litmos account is required to participate in any training—online or in-person—offered by RCUH.

For those who enrolled in Litmos by January 31, 2018, your access is ready. Please check your email for a message from “RCUH <[email protected]>” for your login. Your email address will also serve as your username. The system is easy to navigate, but this user guide will get you started. The user guide is also available as a course, “*Introduction to Litmos,” found in the Course Library. To download the guide, click on “Additional References.”

For those who have not yet enrolled in Litmos, sign up here today.

Should you have any questions, please contact RCUH Corporate Services at [email protected] or call 808-988-8314 or 808-988-8315.

RCUH Financial Portal — PDF Versions

PDF versions for all online transactions approved on July 1, 2012 to the present date are now available in the RCUH Financial Portal.  PDF versions for online transactions approved June 30, 2012 and prior are available upon request by contacting Ricky Fujioka.

A PDF version of the online transaction is a snapshot of the document at the time of approval and is kept for archival purposes.  As RCUH continues to improve our system and make necessary modifications to our forms, the PDF version ensures that we have an exact copy of the document when it was approved. The PDF version will reflect the form in its state at the time of approval.  However, the online version will reflect the form in the current layout.

If you have any questions, please contact Ricky Fujioka at [email protected] or (808) 988-8346.

eSign via HITS

The State of Hawai‘i Office of Enterprise Technology Services (ETS) will be offering eSign training via HITS on Wednesday, January 17, 2018, 10:00-11:30 a.m. The session will be led by Micah Hwang of ETS, and RCUH representatives will be on hand to respond to questions regarding applicability to RCUH Finance transactions.

Attendees (new and current users) will be trained on new features, improved user interfaces, and integration with commonly used applications (e.g., Outlook).

What is eSign? eSign is a service that provides users with the option to route documents processed through RCUH (e.g., contracts) via email for electronic signature. Projects that have adopted it have been very pleased with the efficiencies it creates.

To register for the session, please click here. For those unable to attend, a recording will be available at a later date; you may request the recording on the registration form. Registration will close on Friday, January 12. There is no handout for the session.

Should you have any questions, please email Gayle Hamasaki at [email protected].

Notary Service Available

RCUH is pleased to announce that notary service is now available at our Manoa Innovation Center office (2800 Woodlawn Drive, Suite 200, Honolulu, HI 96822).

There are two (2) notaries who will notarize documents at no charge for RCUH PIs and employees:

Please contact Taui or Gayle to schedule an in-person appointment when notary services are required.  We ask that you provide them with adequate lead time to work you into their schedules.   As required by law, a current identification card or document issued by the United States or any of its states or a national government that contains the bearer’s photograph and signature (e.g., driver’s license, state ID, military ID, or passport) is required at the time of your visit.   Documents requiring notarization cannot be pre-signed.

We hope this service will be helpful to you.
