Given how deeply embedded the LMS is in school operations, we are standing up a governance structure that includes four, specialized implementation committees. We invite members of the SPS community (faculty, staff, students) to join one or more of these committees

[create a form for people to sign up for a committee. For more info they can contact the co-chair of the particular committee]:

  • Communications Committee
    • Focus area: plan and design messaging for the community
    • Co-chair: Matt Lewis
  • Pedagogy and Practice Committee:
    • Focus area: develop recommendations and best practices related to teaching on the platform
    • Co-chair: Antonia Levy
  • Technical Committee
    • Focus area: review and make recommendations on technical issues for the platform and for integrations with other systems
    • Co-chair: José Muniz
  • Training and Support Committee
    • Focus area: assess needs and develop training and support plans for faculty, staff and students
    • Co-chair: Sarah Kresh

In addition to the four implementation committees, the governance structure includes:

    • Key responsibility: setting committee priorities, decision making and risk escalation
    • Chair: CUNY SPS Dean
  • Project and Change Management Team:
    • Key responsibility: tracking progress and work from committees and other staff involved in migration, regularly reporting on status and risks to Steering Committee
    • Chair: Ruru Rusmin
