At the Board of Trustees retreat September 20, the following summary of progress was presented to the Board.
Over 90% of senior leadership positions at VTSU have now been filled. These functional leaders are working to translate the designs that emerged from the transformation teams and sub-teams into organizational and staffing plans that will fit new processes and match investment and budget priorities.
The universal application for admission to VTSU in Fall 2023 was launched during the week of September 19, 2022. It is available on the VTSU website.
Transformation core teams have been realigned to correlate to VTSU’s administrative structure and the Shared Services governance structure. Shared Service leaders in IT and HR are working with the new Shared Services Leadership Council to craft service level agreements and finalize organizational designs.
Key Academic Programs and Administrative Operations design and development decisions and timelines are being driven by the systems projects that will support them, such as Colleague ERP, Catalog, and Scheduling. More details on transformation systems projects can be found on this dashboard, which is regularly updated.
The Workforce Development team worked with sponsors to clarify its vision and goals for workforce within the VSC by 2028. The team has also developed design principles to inform the design stage. These were presented to the Board at its September retreat. More information is provided below.
