Instructions for Establishing CMI User Accounts
Application
- To apply for a CMI User account an applicant must submit a copy of their valid Washington University Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) Certificate of Training, a signed Laboratory Specific Training (LST) handout, and a completed CMI User Agreement Letter signed by their Funding PI. The CMI User Agreement Letter provides authorization to the CMI to bill the Funding PI user fee charges incurred by the CMI User. Forms are to be submitted to the CMI Executive Secretary (Marla Means).
- CMI User Agreements expire the last day of the current CMI funding cycle (nominally, August 15th). However, an earlier expiration date can be specified by the Funding PI.
- CMI User Agreements can be renewed or modified anytime by submitting a copy of the Washington University EH&S Certificate of Training for the CMI User, a CMI User signed LST handout, and a new CMI User Agreement Letter signed by the Funding PI.

Instrument Licenses
- A CMI User can only operate CMI central facility instruments in which they are licensed to operate.
- A license for a CMI instrument is issued after the CMI User receives training and demonstrates proficiency in safe operation of the instrument. The CMI User should contact CMI Staff to initiate the licensing procedure.
- Instrument time is reserved using the web-based, instrument sign-up calendars. Consult the specific user policies for a particular instrument that are listed on the sign-up calendar.
- A License expires 1.5 years after the last operation of that instrument.
User Fee Invoices
The Funding PI will receive a set of monthly itemized invoices for each of their CMI Users. For any given User, separate invoices will be issued for each instrument used during the previous month.
