Created by Colleen Luckett (EDUCAUSE) on May 12, 2008

Spotlight logoThe EDUCAUSE Live! Spotlight on Identity Management series is a six-month series that will feature one or two speakers from a campus that have analyzed or solved a problem in a way that many people will find instructive.

MCommunity is a new enterprise directory and identity management system under development at the University of Michigan, a large, decentralized institution. MCommunity will provide a central infrastructure that can be used not only for central IT service provisioning but also for service provisioning within units. Planning for and development of MCommunity is a collaborative effort across both U-M IT units and the many units that will use the new system. In this free seminar on May 19, MCommunity to Improve IT Service Provisioning at the University of Michigan, presenters Elizabeth A. Salley, product manager, and Luke Tracy, MCommunity co-technical lead, both from the University of Michigan, will discuss the issues and concepts surrounding the development of this new system.
