Public Records Request training set for April 22

Dear Public Records Request participants,

The Public Records Office (in Risk, Compliance and Policy Services) is in the process of implementing a public records system called GovQA to automate the processes below:

• GovQA will allow members of the public to submit public records requests, the Public Record Officer to send notices about public records requests to department/employees within the University and for department/employees within the university to send responsive records electronically to the Public Records Officer.
• GovQA provides more effective ways to manage and review records sent to the Public Records Officer; and
• GovQA provides a user-friendly website which allows the Public Records Officer to upload files electronically to public records requestors.

Training

If you would like to be part of the training or if you have any questions, email WWU Public Records Officer Dolapo Akinrinade at dolapo.akinrinade@wwu.edu to register. Available training dates are:

• Session 1: April 22, 2021 from 8:30-9 a.m.
• Session 2: April 22, 2021 from 2-2:30 p.m.

The estimated roll-out (Go-Live) date of GovQA is April 24, 2021.
