Your Guide to UMS Data Access, Training, & Documentation
UMS Institutional Data is data about our students, faculty, staff, and finances. At the UMS, it is stored in MaineStreet in one of three databases: Financials, Human Resources and Campus Solutions (student data). Whether you work in finance, student services, or human resources, secure access to—and acceptable use of—UMS data is imperative. On this page, you can find everything you need to know about accessing UMS institutional data, requesting data, as well as the tools and documentation required to analyze and distribute it properly.
