Instructor-Led "Live" Training (ILT)

The Operation Tiger Cloud training team will conducting instructor-led Zoom sessions for the broad RIT Community throughout late November, December and January.  If you have a "Train the Trainer" volunteer in your department or college, these will likely be redundant and less targeted than sessions that they may offer. 

Register for the Live Sessions using the links in the following table.

Open Labs

*Registration is required. Interpreting services have been requested.

 

Drop-In Support Sessions

Period Activity Pay is a method in Workday for paying a lump sum for completing a specific activity over a set period, such as a faculty member teaching a course or paying a GraduateResearch Assistant (GRA).  Other examples include payment of Graduate Teaching Assistants (GTAs) and Leadership Stipends.
