Request Access to iModules
The University uses iModules to communicate with external audiences of JMU, including alumni, donors, community members, etc. If you wish to email internal audiences (current students, faculty and/or staff), please contact Barry King to discuss whether using iModules is advised for your communication.
You may request access to iModules by contacting uaqa@jmu.edu and Barry King. Barry will help with your initial account set up and Laura will conduct your initial training.
