ctcLink: Updates & How to Get Help

January 23, 2023 by Leave a Comment

Dear Faculty and Staff Colleagues, 

The ctcLink Project has a new Executive Sponsor – me!   

It’s been almost a year since Shoreline’s ctcLink Go Live date of February 28, 2022, and I want to recognize the hard work of so many dedicated staff and faculty who have gotten the College to this point with ctcLink. 

One year out, we are still in the “stabilization” phase of this project and have many issues to work through. Don’t worry – that is expected with such a large campus-wide (and statewide) project. Please hang in there; this project is a marathon, not a sprint, and we are making meaningful progress.  Continued training will be provided (including one today for all administrators at Shoreline).

As you encounter issues, please follow these steps: 

1.       Look for an answer in the Shoreline Support Center.    

2.       Ask friends for help: 

a.       Start with your supervisor and unit colleagues, who are most familiar with the processes in your department.  

b.       Ask statewide colleagues in your ctcLink area (sign up for state mailing lists here).    

3.      Get live help @ https://shoreline.edu/zoomroom Monday-Friday 9:00am-1:00pm & 2:00pm-4:30pm. 

4.      Submit a request for help at the Shoreline Support Center or email Support@shoreline.edu. 

Those help requests/tickets are tracked in a ticketing software called TeamDynamix and are resolved by a team of ctcLink Business Analysts, who will be coming out to department meetings soon so you can put faces to names. 

Finally, ctcLink has a new Project Manager: Ann Garnsey-Harter, Associate VP-Planning, Institutional Effectiveness, & Project Management.

We have come so far from our first ctcLink training sessions back in 2019! 

Thanks,

EVENTS AND NEWS  

Hi folks! It has been a bit of a whirlwind this week with a lot of meetings and projects to work on.  I think that one of the most important items to mention here is to let you all know we did meet with Ruffalo Noel Levitz this week (as mentioned last week).  They came to campus (for free) to assess our core operations focused on enrollment. 

The RNL exit briefing was delivered yesterday before they left campus.  Their summary provided great recommendations for strategic enrollment planning, marketing and promotion, retention strategies, and other items that would have an impact on our overall operations.  Some of those suggestions have been in progress here and others will be very new for the college.  This feedback comes at a great time for us because we need to move forward with urgency and entertain a radical shift in noted practices to become more strategic, proactive, and DEI-focused to turn this trend of decreased enrollments around. 

With the last several quarters of decreased enrollments, we are not in the strongest position as a college.  We started the year within budget, but it is projected that even given the conservative budget built last year, expenditures will exceed revenues.  Our reserves are in good shape and within policy, but this downward trend in enrollment is problematic and will be even more so in the next couple of years if it does not change. We will bring multi-year projections and information to share with you at the Campus Challenges meeting next week and at the upcoming Board of Trustees meeting.  I am excited to work collaboratively with all of you to show this community what Shoreline can do to turn this around. It will take some changes in the way we do things.  With the creativity and energy of you all, I know we can do this!
