Timeline
Project Nexus is anticipated to go live in late 2022
Transforming our business processes and the solutions that support them is lengthy but worthwhile undertaking. A 'go-live' (or timing for which we anticipate our new solutions to be ready for use by our broader institution community) of December 2022, provides the opportunity to ensure that the systems and processes we configure support the current and future needs of our faculty, staff and students. Moreover, it affords our district and college project team members and contributors with the time they need to allocate to project related deliverables, while continuing to serve our students and RCCD community.
