Collaboration Success Program 2023 - all participants

[Laura Paglione <>]

This Week at CSP November 30, 2022

Important Now

At Office Hours this week, we will be hearing a deep dive from Winston-Salem. We have a change in plans for the second half of our session. Given the very robust conversation we had two weeks ago, we’ll leave the second half of this week’s meeting as free-form discussion time. We will be using these discussions to help structure the speaker list for Jan-May. Looking forward to your feedback, questions, and insights!

What you should be thinking about right now:

• WORKBENCH: Your workbench server is available for your use. The server names were shared with your team’s CSP lead. Resources and the recording from the office hours presentation about the workbench can be found in Canvas.

• ON DEMAND RESOURCES: There are lots of resources that are available to you. We have made a list of several in the “Useful Links” section below.

• DEEP DIVES: Each institution will be doing a “deep dive” presentation about their CSP project. See when you are presenting. Presentation tips are in Canvas.

Leads Corner

Next Leads Meeting: Wed, Nov 16

We have two topics for this meeting

• Exec Session: We will be joined by Steve Zoppi at the start of our meeting as we follow up on our discussion about the CIO/Executive sessions planned for January.

• Topics for Winter: Deep dives are halfway done - are you getting what you need from the program? Time to start gathering a list of what cohort-generated topics we should cover in the second half of the program. As a thought starter, here are a few that have come up over the past several weeks:

• Zero Trust

• Passwordless Authentication

• Self-sovereign Identities

• Person and Digital Identity (DEI, gender, name change, etc)

• Lifecycle Management

• Identity Governance

• Workforce Support

PAST MEETINGS: Meeting recording and resources from the Oct 19 session are posted at the Leads Corner page in Canvas.
