As part of our continuing efforts to make improvements in Wake Forest University’s data security, Information Systems has enabled Google’s new anti-phishing features in your WFU Google Mail.
Google also announced the rollout of a new look and feel for Google Mail users. Read more here.
In the coming days you will be able to opt-in to using the redesigned look and feel.
Wake Forest will launch Workday as the University’s financial and Human Resources system on July 2. Instructor-led offerings begin May 14, with several opportunities to attend each course. Additionally, on-demand material will be available May 7.
Visit the Workday section of the PDC website to register for training opportunities.
Check out the Learning section of the Workday website for additional information, including a chart outlining courses to consider, based on ways you will interact with the system.
