1. Training - October dates, certification?

2. Testing - Sep 21 is when we open. Is late delivery of UCB environment a problem with overall timeline that we need to communicate? What is the impact to testing?

SILS project blog (recurring)

Is the blog necessary?

10

All

Let’s make on a decision on this

• Blog has been challenging - finding the time!

• Is anyone reading it? And is it providing value? If not, delete it?

• Agreement we are communicating this same information to the cohort effectively and we don’t need it.

• Interview different groups to create blog posts such as the ICs on how they are organized locally and how it’s going. Ask 3 questions. Do a seasonal series.

Basecamp

Revisit our policy on limiting Basecamp as we enter the full implementation phase; document our reasons.

Immediate next steps this week:

1. Create a decision page (Done! Needs Op Leads review)

   1. If we do agree to open up BC a little more, ensure that the limitation that BC access will only be given upon request as needed.

2. First draft of best practices by Op Leads (In progress in decision page)

3. Share with ICs, PPC (Done!), IT, SILS chairs to edit

4. Consult with Marci (Done!)

5. Confirm where on BC to post the request for accounts (post on the message board)

Q: Would adding more members of your team to BC be beneficial?

PPC: Yes. It would be great to have the option to add people if we want/need to.

Q: Will adding more people to Basecamp dilute its utility for the core user groups like PPC?

PPC: No

Q: Will adding more people to Basecamp create too much work in answering questions and troubleshooting problems about Basecamp?

PPC: A bit like the previous question; no

Q: Limit to only cohort? Include local implementation team members who are not in the cohort? Allow ICs and others chairs to determine who on the local teams should be included?

PPC: We should empower people to have access. IC’s should add local team members. It is important that everyone in BC follows procedures and knows what to do with the answers.

Q: Should access begin immediately to allow new users to get used to Basecamp before Implementation begins or wait until Implementation phase launches on Nov 5?

PPC: Groups should have access asap, for local members defer to what ICs believe is best.

Q: What’s the best way to share best practices and what happens if users do not follow them?

PPC: Chairs are responsible for ensuring that their group members are aware of best practices and rules of the road. ICs are responsible for ensuring that anyone from their local team(s) is aware of those documents. We are all professionals and expect that people will do the right thing. Reminders if they do not.
