How do I get access to the FIU Calendar?

| By

The FIU Calendar is where FIU students, faculty and staff can stay organized and keep track of important dates and events. In the calendar, users can search through upcoming events and add them to their personal calendars or submit their own events.

The Office of Digital Communications does not directly approve events, instead we assign users as event admins so they can manage or update events for their departments as needed.

Whether you need access to create events or approve events to the FIU Calendar, follow these steps:

Log in to FIU Calendar

To get access to the FIU Calendar, the first step is to log in to the platform with your FIU credentials.

Visit calendar.fiu.edu and click on Log In in the top right corner of the screen.

Log into FIU Calendar

You will see a pop-up to login with different platforms; select “Login with FIU Account.”

Once you have logged in to the platform, you will be able to submit a new event. Make sure to assign the appropriate “Department” so an event admin can approve and publish the event.

I need to approve events in the calendar

To provide you access to the calendar as an event admin, you will need to follow these steps: 

1. Log in to FIU Calendar

Before you can be made an event admin, you must log in to calendar.fiu.edu at least once. Follow the steps above to log in once before proceeding to Step 2.

2. Contact Digital Communications

Request access to become a departmental event admin by emailing digimaint@fiu.edu. In the email, provide the name of the calendar/department you need to access and copy a department supervisor or program manager. The Digital Communications team will let you know when you’ve been granted access to the FIU Calendar.  

It is important to note that Digital Communication does not approve events, we merely grant access to become an event approver for a given department. The FIU Calendar’s event admins are responsible for the management and approval of these events.

If you are unsure of who the FIU Calendar event admin is for your department, you can email digimaint@fiu.edu to inquire.
