Hi John, For automation of workflow we are using Appian for our process automation platform and UIPath for RPA. We also use ServiceNow more now for workflow automation. Our preference was not to tie the automation tools to a particular application as we have such a wide range of needs it's more flexible ...

Hi everyone, Someone posted about a student created website about using generative AI, and I can't seem to find the post. Hopefully someone will remember where it was and can repost the link?

RE: Question about reviewing technology acquisitions

Hi Sherri, At UBC we also have a policy that requires approval of any project that has technology as a component, (excluding any project that is funded 60% or more from grants) and so a detailed workflow and approval process designed to capture acquisitions and subject them to a review from an architecture, ...

Hi David, UBC selected Destiny One for this requirement. We had a comprehensive procurement process. Happy to connect you with the folks who ran it. My understanding is that it's widely implemented for non-credit. Jennifer Sent from my Galaxy

RE: Generative AI for Higher Ed Administration

Hi Kristen, I have not encountered very much at all (if anything) that speaks to the use cases for generative AI outside the teaching and learning space. I would imagine admin use cases would be very similar to non-HE. I am contemplating surveying our community to see how people are using it today. ...

Governance for AI initiatives

Found In Egroup: AI \ view thread
Hi everyone, I am wondering if any of your institutions are contemplating changes to governance to manage the implications for AI? In addition to the academic policies which I know many of you have addressed, as has UBC, I am specifically thinking of areas like data governance and data access, approvals ...

RE: Institutional Guidance/Messaging

Hi Kimberly, We haven't got to the point of creating non-academic guidelines yet, although the working groups have been spun up and are comprised of research, learning and administration. So a very collaborative effort. In terms of communication, my observation to date is that this technology and ...

Hi everyone, From what I have seen so far, most of the messaging appears to be targeted to the academic community and focused on teaching and learning activity. UBC has been doing this as well, but are now starting to look at implications beyond T&L and at other use cases. Has anyone created guidelines ...

RE: Operational Report Services

Hi Shirley, There are many different structural models and I am not sure there's a perfect one. It really depends on the institutional model. The area you would need to monitor closely is the support for the tools. While this is often closely integrated with the use and thus arguably needs to be supported ...

RE: Funding for residential bandwidth and wifi

Posted By Jennifer Burns 04-14-2022 09:59:41 AM
Found In Egroup: CIO \ view thread
Hi Shawn, I am going to assume you mean resident students vs residential customers (UBC has both). Students are charged a fee as part of housing fees which covers the full TCO of delivering the service including support, hardware, maintenance. We don't allow various bandwidth levels, just the one. ...
