Review and approve a Nimbus process diagram

Business process owners and subject matter experts may be asked to review and/or approve a Nimbus process diagram at any time, as part of the College’s process governance cycle.

For each diagram that you are asked to review, you will receive an automated email.  A new notification alert will also appear in the top right-hand corner of the Nimbus home page.
