How do I get access to CEF?

After your PI rents a chamber, you are required to complete the following items to gain entry to the building:

  1. Complete the mandatory Annual CEF Basic Training
  2. Request AggieAccess to CEF A and/or CEF B
    • If the new user already has AggieAccess Credentials for another campus location, simply email Joel Del Rio, [email protected], with the name & email address of the person requesting access
    • If the new user doesn’t already have AggieAccess Credentials, request them here: AggieAccess for students or AggieAccess for staff. Joel Del Rio is the CEF key control manager.
