Introduction
Minnesota State System Office has opened its system-wide license for DocuSign to all campuses to utilize, which makes it easier to require signatures and documents between all Minnstate members. Although there may be a charge for this service in the future, the System Office is not charging campuses at this time. These forms can be sent for signatures to St. Cloud State students, faculty, staff, or non-campus users.
Templates can also be saved and shared with other St. Cloud State users with the appropriate access.
DocuSign collects legally binding electronic signatures on departmental and outside-agency forms. You only need DocuSign if legal compliance is required. Examples would include any state or federal government forms that require signatures. An example of a less formal authorization is when an email approval is acceptable rather than requiring a signature.
Instructions
