Current and upcoming development roadmap

Migration
- All migration sites are still on hold, unless they are smaller sites, which in that case they are being moved forward.
- Still working on training and how this will be facilitated to the wide group of areas on campus.
- was disucssion on a community training site, this could be a space where everyone comes together and support each other or does each unit have there own training site.
- alot of backend details that still need to be worked out.
- is training mandatory, as this was discussed before and moving forward still wanting it to be
- can we outsource training this would come as an added cost, but may be worth looking into futher.
- Joe will reach out to appropiate parties to inquire.
- should have thought about training training before as this is a massive undertaking and feel that it was not properly managed.
- Joe - doing the best that we can, and listening to everyone's concerns and trying our best given the magnatued of this project
- Seems to be alot more delays than anticpated, departments have acquired more costs with hiring to help with the sites.
- Alongside the migration departments are also juggling other projects.
- We really need to focus and/or look at other options in order to move the migration forward.
Open Scholar update
- Joyce Barlow working on how to best to deliver project updates, will co-present at next WAC meeting with more information
- AODA - have started the analysis work on this, have request ot be consulted through this process as time is ticking, deadline November 2022.
