Individuals are identified as an Emeritus by their Human Resources employment record upon retiring from the university if they were a member of United University Professions or Management Confidential.  An individual's Human Resources employment record must indicate Emeritus status.  Please check with your department or Human Resources to confirm this record is in place upon retirement.

If you do not see the Emeritus task in MyUAlbany for retaining services or if you received an IT Accounts closure email, then your Emeritus status employment record is incorrect or not in place.  Please contact Human Resources to have your records updated accordingly.  Once corrected you will be able to retain your IT accounts.

1. Upon the retirement date, ITS sends information about what access to resources (such as shared folders, shared mailboxes, etc.) is currently being retained by notifying the former department via a termination notification.  This will allow the former department to view the emeritus' access and update accordingly.

2.  At the same time the department is notified, emeriti are sent email notifications to complete a task to retain their IT access within the next 30 days. Emeriti are able to retain their email and access to online resources once they complete their last day of employment at the University by completing the Task in MyUAlbany called "Emeritus Invitation."  This extends access for one year.  

3.  The following year, the emeritus will receive a renewal notification to renew their access for another year.
