Scheduling FAQs
No, Workday Student will not replace Scientia. Scientia will be integrated with Workday.
Workday Student will not replace ClockWork as a solution for supporting students with accommodations for exam scheduling or any other accommodations management and support processes. Workday Student will be designed to record accommodation and disability information for students. It will also support advisors by grouping their students into cohorts, and supporting the priority registration process. The IRP Student team is responsible for ensuring that integration between ClockWork and Workday is complete and operates as needed.
