UM Today | A human-focused digital strategy – UM Today
Imagine if your day-to-day tasks at the University of Manitoba became more intuitive and efficient. That’s the future we’re striving to build as part of our digital strategy.
While our digital strategy involves technology, our focus remains decidedly human—we’re determined to improve the daily experiences of students, faculty, staff, alumni and community members.
To make this happen, we focus on three key areas:
Throughout our progress in these key areas, we’ve been inspired by the community’s enthusiasm. Staff, faculty and students are contributing ideas and feedback, making sure our tools are useful and user-friendly.
So far, we’ve launched a new content management system for our websites and a new Intranet site. We’ve also navigated the challenges of the pandemic, implementing digital tools that enhanced remote work, learning and student engagement.
Currently, we’re working to enhance the blocks and functionality of the website, including improving search to make it easier for users to find the information they need.
This is just the beginning of our journey.
To help guide our strategy, we’ve created a digital steering committee. It includes sub-committees focused on various aspects of university life.
Here are some opportunities our sub-committees are exploring:
In short, our digital strategy is much more than the adoption of technology—it’s a comprehensive approach to enhance UM as an innovative and supportive place to learn, teach and work.
Faculty and staff who are interested in engaging in discussions about digital best practices, technology and trends are invited to join the Digital Community of Practice.
