Change is hard. Asking instructors to be field-test guinea pigs for a new Student Information System is downright dangerous.
The training for this software deployment employed personal touches and dark humor consistent with the workplace culture to soften the impact of an over-hyped and much-dreaded system change.
Ultimately, despite some configuration challenges on the IT end, users adapted well, appreciated numerous quality-of-life improvements, and quarterly reporting accuracy improved dramatically.
Presentation was casual and facilitators were intimately familiar with their content. Presenter notes are embedded in the presentation.
Note: There were two embedded screen recordings hosted on YouTube that are tied to an account that no longer exists.
Topic: SIS New Feature Updates
Audience: 250+ Instructors & Staff
Session Length: 25 Mins

Celebrate the wins! This version upgrade introduced several new features instructors had been asking for. Facilitators opted to rely on more live demos to share the good news in this back-to-school workshop, as users now had two years of experience navigating the software and facilitators wanted more flexibility to respond to questions.
