As mentioned in the last Colleague Implementation News , CTC has begun implementing Datatel's Colleague system.

• Colleague is composed of four main "applications", or Systems:
  • the Core (shared) System,
  • the Student System,
  • the Financial System, and
  • the Human Resources System.


• CTC has already "gone live" on most of the Core and Financial Systems.   Many of you are familiar with the purchasing/requisition process that we use in Colleague.   If you've received an Accounts Payable check, that too came from Colleague.


• The remaining two systems CTC will go live on are the Human Resources and Student Systems.


• Within the four systems there are modules.
•   What's a module?   In this case, it's a sub-component of the system.   For example, within the Human Resources system, there are the modules:
  • Personnel,
  • Payroll, and
  • Position Budgeting.
• Each module is being implemented by a CTC team and each team has a leader responsible for that module's implementation.   Look for these very busy folk. They'll often seem a bit wearied by their implementation duties (in addition to their "normal jobs," that didn't go away).   They're doing a great job and a great service for the College.

We'll talk about "going live" on these modules in future Colleague Implementation News .
