Because of this, we are having to explore the marketplace to see if there is a better option for Academic Room Scheduling Software.</p><p>We are currently in the middle of the RFP (Request for Proposal) process to find a replacement to our current classroom scheduling system. Vendors have submitted bids, and we are currently reviewing those bids. Our goal is to have a replacement vendor chosen by the end of March 2024.</p><p>We will continue to update this community with the progression of this project.</p><div><br /></div>Emily Chohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00273751525322284770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450330415857857013.post-64685346381023442302024-02-07T11:47:00.001-06:002024-02-07T13:52:56.865-06:00CCS user workshops<p>Please join us for our monthly CCS user workshops.

For spring, the auto enroll process will run for the final time on <b>January 15, 2024</b> for all regular sessions and 1st half of term classes. The waitlists will be deleted on <b>January 16, 2024</b>.</p><p><b>TIP:</b> <i>To keep a record of who was on the waitlist for a class, and in what order, we suggest saving a copy of the list prior to its deletion. Also, if you want those formally waitlisted students to be able to register before other students, add departmental or instructor consent to that class section. Students would need to obtain a permission number before they register, and those permissions could be given to the students on the waitlist first.</i></p>Emily Chohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00273751525322284770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450330415857857013.post-59892700782758853172024-01-02T15:46:00.002-06:002024-01-03T11:08:18.429-06:00Spring 2024 final exam room requests<p>If any instructor in your department is teaching an in-person or blended class <b>and</b> planning to have an in-person final exam, a <a href="https://z.umn.edu/FinalExamRequest">Final Exam Request</a> form must be filled out to request a classroom to hold the final exam. </p><p>This same form can also be used to inform us of any final exam changes (date/time or alternate seating), with up to five submissions per form. </p><p>The deadline for Spring 2024 for these requests is <b>March 29, 2024</b>. </p><p></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li><a href="https://asr.umn.edu/news-and-dates/important-dates/final-exam-information">Final exam information</a></li><li><a href="https://onestop.umn.edu/academics/final-exam-times">Final exam schedule</a></li><li><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/14RKEvwTh-5Y3BJWmhi-y4nuwpwZhCR36Vuaesq7_f-8/edit?usp=sharing">How to use the Final Exam Request form </a></li></ul><p></p><div><br /></div>Emily Chohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00273751525322284770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3450330415857857013.post-50765167893403644042024-01-02T15:44:00.000-06:002024-01-03T11:08:16.637-06:00May/Summer 2024 CCS open<p>CCS will open again on <b>January 5th, 2024</b> for the May/Summer 2024 (1245) term to make changes to classes before registration begins on <b>February 22, 2024</b>.</p><p>Classroom assignments for summer 2024 are available on the <a href="http://z.umn.edu/publicclasssearch">Class Schedule</a>.
