MyCOI-OPA+ Resources

MyCOI-OPA+ streamlines the reporting process for Financial Conflict of Interest (FCOI), Outside Professional Activity (OPA) and other disclosures. MyCOI-OPA+ facilitates:

  • Rolling disclosures and updates at any time
  • Transparency and compliance with federal and MIT policies

Faculty, academic instructional staff, campus sponsored research staff, and academic research staff (and others as directed) should disclose outside engagements as required in MyCOI-OPA+.

Launch MyCOI-OPA+

 

First Time Using MyCOI-OPA+

During the MyCOI-OPA+ rollout, additional support is available for all users. 

If you had Significant Financial Interests (SFIs) in My COI via Coeus Lite (legacy system), you will need to review these SFIs (now referred to as "Engagements") the first time you use MyCOI-OPA+. Watch Data Transfer from Legacy COI (Coeus) for a walkthrough of this process.

How to Disclose in MyCOI-OPA+

Watch Getting Started with MyCOI-OPA+ for an overview of OPA Disclosures, FCOI Disclosures, and Travel Disclosures.
