Digital Playground kickoff on 11/13

Join Pete Fleenor on Wednesday, November 13 from 9:30 to 10:00 a.m. as we kick off the new monthly “Digital Playground” series. These optional professional development sessions will focus on growing your technology skills and knowledge. The first session will focus on Gmail and how to organize, maintain, and utilize some of the tools that are available. We will cover both basic and more advanced features of Gmail, so all levels of learners are welcome and encouraged to attend. Bring questions that you may already have about Gmail or feel free to message Pete ahead of time. 


Join the session via Zoom. The session will be recorded and shared with those that cannot attend. December’s session will be an Open Forum, and you can also schedule a 1:1 time to talk about tech-related questions that you have. 


To stay in the loop on Digital Playground, join the Google Group. If you have questions contact Pete at fleen010@umn.edu.

Online self-certification for private loans

FA-IT has just implemented a new self-service web application that allows students to complete self-certification for University private loans online (i.e., TILA). The application populates the form for the student using registration and other data from PeopleSoft. When student submits TILA online, pertinent system data is updated, speeding up loan processing and disbursement. This task used to require in-person assistance from One Stop Student Services, routing through Imaging, and processing by Financial Aid Loan Unit staff. The project rollout marks a big win for student and staff alike -- saving the University time and money.
