SHORT-TERM: Check in on vanguard training process; Is the current process working?

 

 

 

  • Caitlin needs to poke Marci to get exercises marked as done so we can start sending emails earlier.

  • Need to solidify a plan with Ex Libris on how to coordinate offline Q/A question followups with non-cohort members.

  • Catherine has created a storage location in google drive for weekly answers.

  • Neil - Add Y/N - will you be present at the Q/A session.

  • Catherine and Dominique - bring to the IT team, what should we do about telling people about responses from Q/A sessions?

  • Developing a plan for collecting feedback about the process at the end of the training cycle.

MED-TERM: October training: Need to decide on the actual schedule for Oct 5-9 by the end of August

 

 

 

  • Will ex libris record this? This is the start of the quarter so we can expect some people not to be able to attend.

  • At minimum determine the schedule a month in advance (August 28th IT finalizes plan, EXL verifies by 9/2, send calendar holds by September 4th).

MED-TERM: Non-vanguard training

 

 

 

  • Can keep from previous training cycle: all email and form templates.

  • Update existing confluence pages as needed. Week 1 and 2 to be migrated to confluence in preparation.

  • There are typos and weird screenshots on some of the exercises. Since they are moving to confluence, we need to make fixes. Move the pages as are, we will update over time in confluence.

  • EXL should not be changing excises between cycles, but it may happen. Will update in confluence as needed.

  • For round 2, consider adding Q/A’s from previous cycle to the environment.
