Since the LMS is integral to school operations, the transition will be managed by a steering committee and four specialized implementation committees. We invite members of the SPS community (faculty, staff, students) to join one or more of these committees.
Committees will begin their work in Fall 2023 and continue through the migration in Spring 2024 and implementation in Summer 2024.
CUNY SPS students, faculty, and staff are welcome to join! Please complete this form to Join a Committee.
