[laces_wa] Using LACES to create electronic student files

[Bortz, Jody]

Good afternoon to you all.
Big Bend (BBCC) is using only electronic files for our students and storing their documents in TEAMS.  We have started to use LACES for all documents and grad plans, case notes and the transcript section of LACES.  We are finding it very easy to use and I did get permission from Scott to store documents here.

A few on my team are in near panic mode about .... What happens if LACES crashes?  We are currently still retaining info in TEAMS, but want to fully transition to LACES only by November.

Our number 1 issue with storing in LACES is the assigned role/permission given in LACES.  Jody

Good afternoon,

Transitional Studies at Columbia Basin College is still using physical files for students (*gasp! I know). We would like to transition to an electronic system, and were considering using the documents section in LACES to fulfill this need.

My question is have any other schools began to utilize LACES in this way, and if so, what processes have you implemented in order to achieve a smooth(ish) transition? Are there any issues to consider regarding storage capacity within the system that you are aware of?

If you already have an electronic filing system, I would be grateful for any insights in general regarding this endeavor. We are specifically looking at what must be included in the student files for both ABE and ELA.

I look forward to your responses. Any information is greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time,

Danielle Reardon
