Access Anthology Academy

The speed of business has increased exponentially over the last few years and the demands on enterprise software to be faster, more flexible, and efficient have become essential for progressive institutions. Our foundational technology cannot hold us back through delays and complexity. It must help to drive us forward with flexibility and agility at speed.
ERP software that cannot keep up with our evolving business needs is inherently out of alignment with our growth strategy and actively impeding our progress. Moreover, it is keeping us behind our competition.
Faculty and staff members will experience reductions in effort, save time on tasks, and access detailed analytics and reporting. 
Based on your role, you may be asked to assist in the design, configuration and testing of the solution. In addition, training will be provided to all users. 
Faculty and staff members may be asked to review and revise current processes and procedures as the new solution is in testing and deployment.
Even if you are not serving on an individual project team, your insights are incredibly valuable to this process. Please be sure to submit your questions and feedback to us at projectnexus@rccd.edu.
​​​​​​​Although our official go-live of many of these new solutions a​re still several months away, there are several ways you can start getting ready for being introduced to your new tools.
