Requesting a Site

The CMS service is geared toward members of the UBC community that have a need for a common look and feel website, and as such, are often faculty units, administrative departments, campus initiatives, etc. It is recommended that individuals look at UBC Blogs for personal web publishing solutions.

Requesting a site is a two step process:

1. Create a UBC CMS User Account
2. Fill out the Website Request Form

• Go to https://cms.ubc.ca/ (bookmark this for the future!) >> click on the LOGIN button and enter your CWL information.

• The “Get your own CMS @ UBC account in seconds” screen appears

Your Username is permanent while you can change your Email Address and Display Name.

• Enter a Username (only the lowercase letters a-z and numbers allowed), Email address, and Display Name
• Agree to to the terms: "I have read and agree to the terms of service" at the bottom of the page
• click the NEXT button
