UAC Updates

@Rebecca Baugnon

Reminder: We need sub-team Vice Leads! Let Rebecca know when vice leads have been decided

Monthly discussion schedule:

  • November: User Documentation

  • January: Member Engagement

  • March: Testing

  • April: Dev-Pri

  • May: Usability

Workplan Updates:

  • Many sub-teams have reached a point of “term regularization” with regard to responsibilities and activities.

  • Community engagement through outreach on listservs, surveys, potential presentations at member forums continues to be priority for many sub-teams

  • Use of Jira tags as a method of information communication is common; ensure that leadership transition documentation includes training and ownership of this space for each sub-team’s use case.

  • Consider converting your sub-team’s workplan to the Workplan Template if you did not use it this year to ensure continuity across sub-teams on both Councils.
