WRAP Access for WVU Health System Employees

The WVU Health System and the University are separate legal entities with separate identity and access management systems that govern and provide access to systems and services. Health System employees must have a shared account, dual appointment, or a sponsored account to access University resources like the new research administration system, WRAP. This is a requirement for liability, licensing, and information security policy purposes. The current system, WVU+kc, auto-provisions Health System employees using custom code; this is not possible with WRAP as it is a commercial system developed by Huron Research.

WRAP Access

Some Health System employees are shared users (decided upon by the Health System), have a dual appointment with the University (e.g., faculty who are paid by both the University and the Health System), or have an existing sponsored account with the University. These employees can log into WRAP using their existing WVU Login credentials.

Health System employees who do not have a dual appointment or shared user account must request a sponsored account to access WRAP. 

Access to WRAP is needed for anyone listed as a PI or a Co-I on an IRB protocol (for COI disclosures). Note that Health System employees must meet requirements to be a PI on a University funding proposal. Health System employees can be listed as a PI on research conducted for the Health System.
