Workday Student is coming soon!
Workday Student is coming soon! We are aligning the system to meet the needs of the MSU Denver community, creating a more connected experience for students, faculty, and staff. Here’s how we’re helping you prepare for a smooth transition.
What is readiness?
Navigating Change with a Growth Mindset
Readiness means understanding what’s changing and having the tools and support to adapt. We’re embracing a growth mindset to prepare for this change. That means we are embracing the changes that Workday brings, staying open to learning new things, and focusing on progress over perfection. Here’s how you can support this work:
- Departments: Learn how new processes affect roles, policies, and workflows. Be ready to explain changes and guide students through the transition.
- Individuals: Understand what’s changing for you, complete training, and know where to find help.
We’re focused on being clear and transparent in communicating what’s changing and how to get ready, aligning support resources to how you work and support students, and building confidence in using the system.
Resources for every role
We’re committed to making sure every part of our campus community has what they need for success. Over the coming months, we’ll share resources designed for:
- Students
- Advisors
- Faculty
- Registrar’s Office
- Program administrators and support staff
- Admissions Office
- Student Financials
- Financial Aid Office
Workday is designed to evolve, so learning will be ongoing and abilities will grow over time.
Readiness Activities
Our readiness efforts began in early 2025 with change impact sessions and configuration reviews. Next, you’ll have opportunities to:
- Preview upcoming changes
- Explore how the system works
- Prepare through training and hands-on experiences
Preview opportunities start in Fall 2026. Training opportunities will start late 2026 in preparation of Fall 2027 semester registration starting in April 2027. More details will be shared as plans are finalized.
Upcoming activities
Here’s what to expect as we move closer to launch:
- Clear communication: Timely updates, FAQs, and a project site that’s always current
- Training & learning resources: Role-based training, self-paced modules, and quick guides
- Preview opportunities: Demos, videos, and testing environments
