The R3 Project is in the Design and Develop/Personalize Phase. Not only are we designing our business processes during this phase, but we’re also making hundreds of configuration decisions.
To configure the Thesis SM software means adding to or changing current details within the SIS software to tailor it to Algonquin College needs.
Sounds complicated, right?! Let’s break it down using an analogy.
Our Holiday Showcase Event focused on sharing the SIS Training and Development Approach for the first time!
R3 Project Manager of eLearning and Development, Rob Kershaw, walked us through the resources and supports that will help prepare our College community for the new system launch. He also provided a practice simulation of the new SIS, Thesis SM.
Charmaine Childs, Change Management Officer, reviewed some of the R3 Project highlights from 2022. We wrapped up the event with a live Q&A session.

More than 175 participants attended the first Business Process Walkthrough Event held virtually by the R3 Project team.
Integrations, integrations, integrations.
Algonquin College uses a number of digital tools to help us do our work. Whether it’s Brightspace, Salesforce, Clockwork or the 49 other identified platforms that connect with our Student Information System (SIS), one thing is for sure: there’s a whole lot of communication happening between our SIS and our other platforms. We call that process, integrations.
We’re excited to welcome Chris Janzen, Senior Vice President, Academic, as our host for the September 29 Showcase Event as well as having President and CEO Claude Brulé start us off with a welcome message.
This Showcase Event will highlight recent R3 Implementation Committee recommendations that were then approved by the College.

The R3 Project presents the opportunity to rethink and redesign many of the College’s business processes to improve employee satisfaction as well as student success and satisfaction.
One of the R3 Project’s biggest goals it to review and make recommendations on Business Processes and thus work closely with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and Core SIS Users to effectively implement the new Student Information System (SIS), Thesis Student Management (Thesis SM).
Leadership, governance and experience: these are all traits that are needed within a Steering Committee roster. And as the name suggests, a Steering Committee helps steer a project from start to finish—which is exactly what we have with the R3 Project’s Steering Committee.
The R3 Project has established five main objectives that we refer to whenever we make a decision that has ultimate outcomes. We always make sure that at least one of these objectives is being met when we’re re-working an existing element or introducing a new Business Process.
