New Workday Student Curriculum Advisory Team (WS-CAT)

We’re excited to introduce WS-CAT (pronounced “Wish-Cat”), a new committee formed to support the academic transition to Workday Student. Comprised of representatives from key stakeholder groups, WS-CAT will guide curricular changes by developing evaluation criteria, setting timelines, reviewing proposals, advising academic units, facilitating communication, and managing urgent appeals. 

Please direct questions to Felix Ngassa in the Provost office ([email protected]) or Workday Student Faculty Dept Sponsor Anne Sergeant ([email protected]).

 

Learning to Speak Workday: Student Cohort

Each month, we'll share key terms to help you get familiar with the language of the Workday project.

Student Cohort is a group of students with shared characteristics, such as entry term, academic program, or graduation year. This feature is used in Workday to support communication, reporting, and academic planning.
