Project News

ETL6 - Week 1

The first week of the review, practice, and testing activities for ETL6 wrapped up yesterday. The data conversion was successful, and student account data looked great! In addition to their data validation work, the SAMs also completed the testing of the Anthology out of the box features this week.

On the academic records side, registrar teams attended review sessions for multiple academic processes in Anthology Student related to updating student records and statuses. In addition, registrar teams got to practice using the new SFTP process to update expected status indicators, faculty advisors, and registration priority group indicators.

We appreciate the engagement and commitment of our 5C participants so far as they review, practice and test this fall. Should you need support from TCCS, feel free to reach out to Josh Hall.

Faculty Portal Preview

Members of the TCCS team met with ADC this week and will begin scheduling faculty portal preview sessions at each of the colleges this fall. The Deans also began planning for procedural changes related to pre-registration that may be necessary starting next year. The Deans and Registrars will convene in January to confirm plans.

Functional Group Assignments

We now have representatives from all the 5Cs to all the SIS functional teams: Student Accounts, Registrars, Reporting, Security, and Integrations. We anticipate having volunteers from each of those teams join the SIS Core group by the end of October.
