New to Works or Need a Refresher: Open training sessions for faculty are offered throughout the year. These group training sessions focus on navigating the new Works interface and entering annual activity data into Works. We will review adding and editing data, importing publications, reviewing and managing imported data (grants, teaching, and advising), and populating the Annual Activity Report. Please bring any specific questions and we are happy to answer them. Meeting information for the virtual training session will be emailed prior to the session. The next virtual training sessions for faculty are on:
