Nuventive

**When Should You Enter Annual Updates?** Annual updates should be entered during program review cycles when your program is not going through comprehensive program review, and you need to request resources. The annual update fields should be used to enter clarifying, background information on any new goals, or resource requests that are being entered and to provide any updates or changes that have come up since your last comprehensive program review.

Nuventive has an automatic log out timer, so we recommend writing your responses in an external document first prior to entering them in the system. There is no auto-save feature within Nuventive. Feel free to use our Google Doc or Microsoft Word Templates from the Program Review[ Forms](https://www.canadacollege.edu/programreview/forms.php) page to view all questions.

Open Nuventive

Navigate to [SMCCCD OneLogin](https://smccd.onelogin.com/portal) and sign in using your SMCCD credentials

From the portal, select the "Nuventive" tile.

If the "Nuventive" tile is not listed under the "Frequents" tab, select "**mySMCCD: All Portal Apps**" and it will be listed there.

Ensure you are on the correct program, then select the **three vertical lines** (aka the hamburger icon) in the top left corner.
