Portals Migration

CWS/CMS Training Portal Migration

November 20, 2023 Communications
All SPOCs and Training Coordinators: 
November 20, 2023 UPDATE: Previously, a CWS/CMS user was able to access the Training Portal through the CWS/CMS application. After migrating to the new CWDS website, that functionality is no longer functional. On November 3, 2023, System Change Request (SCR) 8980 was successfully implemented in the CWS/CMS application to now direct the user to the new Training Portal location. The user will now need to enter their login credentials.

The CWDS Office is researching options to return the previous functionality to allow access from the CWS/CMS application to the CWDS Training Portal without the need to enter additional login credentials. There is no current ETA when this functionality could return. Additional communications will be shared when the situation has changed.

We want to inform you that the Training Portal is being migrated to the CWDS Web Site on November 3, 2023. 
  
The Training Portal will be migrated to a new web page on the CWDS Web Site. The Training Portal will go live on November 3, 2023, under the Stakeholder Resources tab on the CWDS website. See below for screenshot of new location. 
 
Also, effective November 1st, the CWS/CMS Portals link on the CWDS Web Site will be renamed to “CWDS Portals.” All portal links on the current CWS/CMS Portals Site will redirect users to the new CWDS Web Site portal location from November 3 – December 31. The current CWS/CMS Portals page will be completely decommissioned on January 1, 2024.  
 
Please remember to update your favorite bookmarks to the new URL. 
 
Currently, a CWS/CMS application user can access the existing Training Portal through the CWS/CMS application, via the Help drop-down menu.  This takes the user to the Training Portal and does not require the user to enter a username and password. However, upon migration of the Training Portal on November 3, 2023 to the new site, this capability will no longer be functional. Due to technical and security constraints, CWDS is exploring all options to restore this capability in the CWS/CMS Application. 
 
The existing Navigating the Training Portal document will be updated and made available soon.  
 
The new Training Portal site will include:  
  • Training Materials 
  • Guides 
  • STAR 
  • CWS/CMS Releases 
  • New User Curriculum 
  • Process Maps 
  • Mapped Documents 
  • FAQs  
Features on the Member Area:  
  • Documents and other Training materials
