Today we will be discussing the college’s decision to move from Ellucian’s Banner platform to Workday for our HCM, Finance, Payroll, (ERP) and Student Information System (SIS). We will discuss the “why” and what the benefits are for faculty, staff, and students with the new platform. In addition, we will discuss how the college came to the point to choose a new platform and the details behind why this is such an important and large undertaking for the college. Today’s Guests are: Eric Gillespie, Assistant Vice President of Enterprise Service Delivery, Systems Office Matt Etchison, Chief Information Officer and Sr. Vice President, Systems Office Call to Action: We will end today with the reminder that Ivy Tech is embarking on a 5-6-year journey to be at the forefront of technological innovation with its new ERP/SIS Workday platform. Such initiatives take time and patience from everyone but the end result will be radically better than what we currently ha Change can be difficult, but change can also be for the better. We are asking for everyone to engage and contribute in a positive and meaningful way to this project and know that your help as faculty, staff, and students will make the new ERP/SIS platform better for everyone.
