Dickinson faculty members and staff from across multiple disciplines are encouraged to apply! This event will be hosted both in person and virtually!

Faculty and staff study groups are primary drivers for new curricular and programmatic innovation at Dickinson. The Center for the Futures of Native Peoples (CFNP) Think Tank aims to equip faculty and staff with strategies and resources to integrate Indigenous Knowledge and Ways of Being into learning spaces and course curricula. Secondly, participants will learn creative teaching and facilitation methods rooted in Indigenous pedagogies. This CFNP Think Tank is a step in developing a Native American Studies minor. A visiting faculty member and the Executive Director for the Center for the Futures of Native Peoples, Dr. Amanda Cheromiah (Laguna Pueblo), will facilitate the CFNP Think Tank. This CFNP program is a testament of our commitment to your professional development and the success of this Mellon Foundation funded initiative.

The May 2025 edition of our Workday monthly e-newsletter, your source for updates and insights about Dickinson’s transition to Workday is now available to view online!

Workday Project Update

The Workday project team continues to make strong progress, and we’re happy to report that we remain on track and are moving forward as planned. This month, our primary focus areas are Unit Testing, Reporting, and Integrations—each a critical building block in ensuring a smooth and successful implementation.

We’ve officially started Unit Testing, a key milestone where we test individual components of the Workday system to confirm they function as designed. Our team has finalized the test scenarios, and many of those who participated in Functional Alignment Sessions are now directly involved in developing and reviewing meaningful test cases. Their work on the scenarios is helping us ensure the system aligns with our needs and expectations.

During Unit Testing, we are:

• Validating core system configurations
• Ensuring test scenarios produce expected results
• Confirming the system reflects documented design decisions
• Identifying any issues from data conversion
• Conducting isolated tests of independent processes

This testing process allows us to uncover and resolve any issues early, supporting the integrity and reliability of the Workday platform before we move into broader testing phases.
