The college will have new phones by Monday. Over time, meeting rooms and classrooms will gain phones. With the new system, you will need to dial 8 instead of 9. Your voice mail will appear in Outlook. Be sure to transcribe your voice messages prior to Friday as they will disappear. Another feature will allow you to login at another phone, except for a classroom, so you can receive your calls there. You will be able to change your location in agresso self service so people can call you and find you. A new application connected to this new phone system, Jabber, ,will allow us to do desktop sharing, do instant messaging with video support, and see someone's availablitly based on their Outlook calendar.
New wireless clocks coming soon.
Desire2Learn will be upgraded to a new version on January 1, 2014. More information regarding new features to follow.
SharePoint planning for college use continues. Prototypes to be out hopefully before Christmas break.
Adobe site licensing for the Creative Cloud being investigated. This license would allow the college to better track installations and manage upgrades.
Russell Arsenault, from the Office of Institutional Analysis, demonstrated Qlikboard and the reports and dashboards now available on application and enrolment data. The application appears very user-friendly and would provide easy visual access to make staffing and budget decisions based on this data.
