The 2009 WCM Survey was sent out this afternoon to all CI employees via campus email. We look forward to hearing back from the community about the current system and the features that we should focus on in a new system.

Regardless of which system is selected, key policy and procedure issues need to be resolved prior to system implementation. These include answers to questions such as:

  • Who will use the WCM?
  • Who is required to use the new WCM, i.e., which persons/organizations/Web sites/etc.?
  • What alternatives will be provided for those who don't wish to use (or who can't, for some reason) use the new WCM?
  • What are the expectations for how the system will be used? What processes will change, and which will stay the same?
  • How will support be provided: who will provide it, and at what levels of financial and human support?
  • How will the University ensure that WCM users have the skills and tools to use the WCM successfully?
  • How will the success of the new WCM be evaluated?
Members of the Core Team will be meeting in the coming weeks to discuss these inter-related issues. The answers to these decisions will also help direct the evaluation and selection process.
