Overview
As Minnesota State moves forward with the implementation of Workday Student, it’s important to recognize that not every campus system or service will be replaced by the new student information system. Many tools, applications, and locally developed solutions will continue to play a critical role in supporting students, faculty, and staff. Companion Projects are third-party or custom business solutions that fulfill a business need left open by the current student information system (ISRS). These systems extend functionality, support specialized campus operations, and ensure essential services continue without disruption.
