Frequently Asked Questions

LSU A&M, LSU of Alexandria, LSU Eunice, and LSU Shreveport worked together to identify and vet numerous products that met our goal of implementing a cloud-based, state-of-the-art solution to achieve a unified SIS across these campuses. Through a competitive, two-year RFP process, multiple vendors were identified, and finalists were invited to present their products. A cross-institutional evaluation committee reviewed these presentations, evaluated campus feedback, and considered vendor proposals. The committee ultimately selected Workday Student as the new SIS for these institutions.

This also allows us to expand upon the services we already have with Workday.

Yes! LSUE is supporting a full-scale training approach that will provide necessary training to all users. The type of training will be dependent on the task or system with which each type of user interfaces. The training team will develop a holistic plan for training and training availability will be widely communicated through various channels.

No. Workday is one unified system. We are adding "Student" functionality within the Workday system we are already using. Users with access to Student functionality will find those items within the same Workday platform they are using today.

Most students, faculty and staff will begin using Workday for Student functionality in early Spring 2025. Detailed access information will be shared with all users closer to that time.
