Charting Our Path Forward
Implementing Workday Student is a significant transformation that will modernize how MSU Denver supports the student experience. To lead this change effectively, we’re grounding the work in a clear set of guiding principles. These principles help us stay aligned, make consistent decisions, and ensure we’re building a more seamless, student‑centered academic environment. Project leadership and team members are actively using them to shape their work and guide decisions throughout the implementation.
Guiding Principles
Student Experience
Configure a student information system that is accessible, inclusive, and intuitive to empower students with a smoother, more straight-forward experience.
Staff & Faculty Experience
Focus on creating an innovative, user-friendly system for staff and faculty to manage student information that improves productivity and eliminates confusion.
Collaboration & Inclusion
Work together and include all voices to ensure we are considering upstream and downstream impacts on our stakeholders, and that Workday Student’s processes work for everyone and are not overcomplicated for anyone.
Business Processes
Enhance efficiency by standardizing and streamlining processes eliminating redundant steps and bottlenecks.
Transparency & Communication
Keep our community informed about the Workday Student project, including key dates and milestones, ensuring everyone is working toward a common goal.
Governance
Include the right people with the right knowledge to make decisions. We will empower those people to be able to make decisions.
Growth Mindset
Keep an open mindset to embrace changes that Workday brings for the greater good, knowing that change can be challenging.
System of Record
Workday Student will be the official source of truth for student information, thereby improving data quality and integrity, and regulatory compliance.
Information Access & Accuracy
Ensure that stakeholders have access to accurate information and relevant reporting, enabling them to generate reports and obtain data for improved decision-making.
Why Not Workday?
Use native Workday functionality to create efficient processes that meet institutional requirements and simplify technical and user support.
