• CORE-CT Upgrade Effective 11-25-2024 – NEW 11-07-2024
• Over the past year, the State’s Core-CT Management Team has been working on the Core-CT Modernization Project to upgrade Core-CT to the latest PeopleSoft Update Manager (PUM). This upgraded version of Core-CT will utilize a Fluid User Interface which is a modern user interface that provides a simple, sleek look and feel, resembling many of the web applications used today across laptops, desktops, tablets, and mobile devices. Significant navigational changes will impact employee self service functions, including timesheet entry and timesheet approval.

The GO LIVE date for the Core-CT upgrade will be on Monday, November 25, 2024.

In preparation for this change, employees should familiarize themselves with the following eLearning modules:

• HR Navigation Overview (Learn changes to Core-CT Fluid User Interface and learn to navigate via desktop and mobile devices)

• Time and Labor Self Service (Understand timesheet changes, enter & submit time on both desktop and mobile devices, and view leave and comp time balances)

• ePay Self Service (View and print paychecks, access paycheck data details, request or withdraw consent to receive paperless W-2, and model paycheck scenarios)

• eProfile Self Service (Update personal employee information and submit changes to employee details)

• Life Events Self Service (View benefit information and manage life events that affect benefits and coverage)

Additionally, infographics for timesheet entry and timesheet approvals are being provided as well:

• Core-CT Fluid Time Entry
