I'm a new employees, how do I get access to MassAchieve and my required trainings?

Welcome! Once your executive department agency HR director adds your information into our HR information systems ("HRCMS", the Commonwealth’s payroll system) you will receive an email from MassCareers (the Commonwealth's hiring portal) that includes temporary login credentials for MassAchieve. It also includes details about your Commonwealth required training assignments. MassAchieve employee notifications are sent to the ‘business email’ that is listed in your HRCMS record.  

As a new employee, you'll have 30 days from the date of the MassAchieve training assignment to complete all of your required statewide trainings.

How do I get online help when I'm in MassAchieve? 

Every page in MassAchieve features a help link, it is a question mark (" ? ") followed by the word "Help.". You can find this help link within the top right navigation menu (see the three horizontal bars.) and scroll down to see the help link located underneath "My Account".

I'm having a challenge launching an online course. What should I try first? 

If you’re having an issue launching a course, it's possible that your web browser may be blocking it. If you launch a course and see in your browser address bar (at the top of your page that shows the URL of the page you are on) that there is a “pop-up blocked” icon, often a yellow or red triangle, please try clicking that icon and select the option to allow the pop-up. 

Is PACE still available?

PACE, the Commonwealth's former learning management system, is no longer available. 

Why is my agency’s older 3 letter acronym listed in my MassAchieve user record? 

The employee data in MassAchieve comes directly from the state’s accounting system (MMARS/HRCMS) which uses the former "Department Name" for a limited number of agencies. The MassAchieve system cannot change or update this information, and it is only visible on an employee’s user record.
