In her recent interview on Slate Strategy Sessions, our CEO Kristina Kelpe reveals that documentation is more than a box to check—it’s a culture that can drive efficiency.

There are core elements in Workday Student that, if the data is not accurately maintained, can quietly wreak havoc across your tenant. Expected Completion Date is one of them.

Higher education is overflowing with data, but effectively managing this information within staffing models can feel overwhelming. The disconnect between the vast amount of data available and the frameworks needed to process it leaves many institutions struggling to keep up with pressing challenges.

The term "go-live" in a Workday implementation can be misleading, often signaling the end for implementation partners, but just the beginning for the institution. 

I have to admit, I'm a fan of checklists. There’s something satisfying about crossing off completed tasks. However, when it comes to implementation projects—especially Workday Student—I’ve learned to shift my mindset. Go-live is not the finish line. It’s a significant milestone, yes, but the adventure is just beginning.
