Lorna Wong will be taking a leave of absence from campus for the next two years. She accepted a position as the Interim Director of Learning Technology at UW System Administration. This is a unique opportunity for her to work on projects related to learning technology across UW System, and to participate in strategic leadership surrounding the direction of Course Management Systems. Lorna will start in her new role on October 1st.
During this transition Elena Pokot will assume responsibility for managing and providing direction to the ITS staff. Additionally, we are very fortunate that Veronica Telfer has agreed to be the interim Coordinator of the LTC until a more permanent replacement is hired. We also are in the process of hiring an additional Instructional Designer. This approach will minimize disruption and enable us to proceed with all current initiatives as planned.
Please join us in wishing Lorna well during the next chapter of her career. Also, Elena (pokote@uww.edu) welcomes your comments and questions regarding the transition.
