Workday Project Update

The Workday project team continues to make strong progress, and we���re happy to report that we remain on track and are moving forward as planned. This month, our primary focus areas are Unit Testing, Reporting, and Integrations���each a critical building block in ensuring a smooth and successful implementation.

We���ve officially started Unit Testing, a key milestone where we test individual components of the Workday system to confirm they function as designed. Our team has finalized the test scenarios, and many of those who participated in Functional Alignment Sessions are now directly involved in developing and reviewing meaningful test cases. Their work on the scenarios is helping us ensure the system aligns with our needs and expectations.

During Unit Testing, we are:

��� Validating core system configurations
��� Ensuring test scenarios produce expected results
��� Confirming the system reflects documented design decisions
��� Identifying any issues from data conversion
��� Conducting isolated tests of independent processes

This testing process allows us to uncover and resolve any issues early, supporting the integrity and reliability of the Workday platform before we move into broader testing phases.

Psychological first aid is a simple, yet powerful way of helping someone in distress. It is a form of helping that involves paying attention to the person���s reactions, active listening and if relevant, practical assistance to help address immediate problems and basic needs. Learning PFA skills and understanding reactions to crises empowers the helper not only to help others, but also to apply the same skills to their own crises.
