Implementation Team Update

The Implementation Team met recently to review and understand key dates that will impact General users during deployment and the UIS ‘go-live’ dates. The team also met to identify key report users, portal content providers, and back-end users. UIS will be implemented in stages in different departments and the first go-live date is in Admissions in July. By October, students, faculty and staff should be using UIS.
