Impacted Miami Systems
With Miami’s transition to Workday, where and how you complete tasks may look a little different. Be sure to review the systems that will have their functionality replaced by Workday Student.
Below, 黑料社区 faculty and staff can find information about Workday Platform and Student, including timelines, training materials, and answers to frequently asked questions.
Workday is a comprehensive human resources, financial management, and 黑料社区 information system that brings together a wide range of HCM (human capital management), finance, and 黑料社区 functionality into one system.
As a self-service tool, it puts the power of access and information into our faculty, staff, and 黑料社区s’ hands. It will enable process efficiencies across Miami, empowering our community to make timely strategic decisions and offering effective tools to improve how we operate as a higher-ed institution.

As the Workday project progresses, relevant information will be shared on this website, in Cornerstone, and through many other communication channels.
We are also working to establish a network of Workday Change Agents, individuals who will work together to help champion communication, engagement efforts, training, and overall strategy. Change Agents from every functional area of the university will be identified to ensure broad engagement and two-way communication to help realize a successful Workday implementation, positive end-user awareness, and adoption.
Faculty and staff can view recorded training sessions and access job aids directly within Workday. To access these, enter “LRN: Workday” in the search box at the top of your Workday page, then select the course title you would like to view.
Workday Student training will be offered continuously as new functionality is finalized and introduced, beginning in the Fall of 2026 for most users. Impacted groups will be invited to participate in training opportunities as they become available. Materials and sessions will be delivered in multiple formats to help every campus community member build their knowledge and skills.

Workday Wednesdays are virtual, drop-in information sessions related to all things Workday. Even if you don’t have a specific question, these sessions provide helpful knowledge that you may need in the future, or you may be able to lend your expertise to the conversation and answer questions that the meeting host is unable to answer. These sessions take place every Wednesday from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. via Zoom. These are recorded and the links are listed in the document (Miami login required).
