Governance
On July 1, 2023, governance and support for Yale Connect was transitioned to the Poorvu Center for Teaching and Learning, under the leadership of Pilar Abuin, Senior Director for Educational and Engagement Technology, and in close partnership with colleagues in central IT. As part of the organizational change, a new Governance Committee was established to advise on policies and procedures and make recommendations for platform functionality.
