The Researcher Portal is available for all researchers and HDR candidates at RMIT. If you do not already have access, there are two ways to gain access:
- Ask researcher.portal@rmit.edu.au to provide you access.
- Ask your supervisor to request it on your behalf by completing a Salesforce New User form via ServiceNow. They will need to select ‘Researcher Portal User’ as the access level and ‘Researcher Portal’ as the Salesforce Profile.
