How One University Used SSO To Promote Trending Topics
CASE STUDY
The University of Central Arkansas needed to provide professional development to their faculty and staff. While the institution recognizes the importance of continued opportunities to grow and develop, the university did not have the resources to support staff conference attendance.
Partnering with Innovative Educators, the University of Central Arkansas has been able to leverage Go2Knowledge to ensure all faculty and staff have access to professional development. The team at the university values that they can now serve everyone, everywhere, 24/7.
Central Arkansas utilizes single-sign-on functionality (SSO) to promote webinars that are relevant to trending topics or training needs at the institution. Go2Knowledge is highlighted on the faculty/staff portal, and the technology allows the professional development platform to direct users to specific webinars in the vast catalog of resources. In Go2Knowledge, the university has been able to find a low-cost option for professional development that is accessible and engaging for all campus constituents.
My most recent experience was working to get our SSO in place. It was amazing how quick everything “ went into place between IE and our IT department.
