Greetings, catalog contributors!

We’re excited to see you at the upcoming catalog training. Registration for the training will close on Monday, October 31, and we’re asking you to do two things before that time:

  1. Forward this message to anyone else in your unit who is involved with catalog production. We also recommend that they subscribe to our mailing list.
  2. Complete the catalog contributor & training sign-up form by 5 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 31. Click the link to get started: https://cuboulder.qualtrics.com/jfe1/form/SV_eqVOAiCHm5nvdad [form submission is closed].

About the Form

This year, catalog edits will be made electronically and distributed among editors and approvers using a customized, automated workflow. To build the workflow for your unit, we’re asking you to provide the names of the people directly before you and directly after you in the editing process.

Next, sign up for your in-person training session or indicate that you won’t be able to attend. Please read the session descriptions carefully; each session’s content is geared toward a particular role.

About the Training

Three different training sessions are offered based on your role at CU and with the catalog. You only need to sign up for ONE training session. Each session is offered multiple times, but space is limited, so sign up early to secure a time that works best with your schedule.

  • Academic training is the most comprehensive. Attend this session if you edit tuition tables or academic program information for degrees, minors or certificates, including requirements lists and four-year plans.
  • Administrative training excludes training on program requirement lists. This session is meant for people who work primarily with content related to university policies or administrative units.
  • Approver training is the most basic, and is intended for people who make minimal text edits, focusing instead on approving pages before publication.

If you have any questions, please email us at catalog@colorado.edu. Thank you very much, and we look forward to seeing you soon!

Regards,

Office of the Registrar
