Faculty and Staff a Play Key Role in the Workday Student Project

The success of Workday Student relies on collaboration across GVSU. Faculty and staff play a vital role by serving as Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), sharing their expertise in workstream meetings to support a smooth transition. Many are also involved in key Advisory Groups, including: 

• Change Management Advisory Group- Guides stakeholder engagement, communication, and training
• Communications Advisory Group- Ensures clear and transparent messaging
• Academic Affairs Advisory Group- Represents diverse perspectives in decision-making 

Learn more about SMEs and Advisory Groups on the Project Team webpage. Contact us with any questions about these groups.
