A message from Gráinne McElroy, Deputy Chief Information Officer, Faculty of Medicine.
I am pleased to announce the launch of the new, refreshed MedNet faculty and staff website. The refreshed site is now live at mednet.med.ubc.ca and features a new look and feel, improved mobile compatibility, and an updated and streamlined navigation.
To support this transition, the Digital Solutions team has worked with content owners to ensure that all required content from the previous MedNet site is available on the refreshed site, hosted on WordPress, a UBC-supported and secure content management system. As part of the transition, it is important to note that some saved bookmarks may need to be updated — however direct links to forms and external applications will either redirect or remain unchanged.
Today’s launch is part of the MedNet modernization project, an initiative to move all content from MedNet hosted on SharePoint 2013 to modern collaboration and solutions available at UBC. The first phase of the project, which included the migration of MedNet Team Sites to new, secure collaboration tools including Microsoft Teams, Microsoft OneDrive, and Qualtrics, successfully concluded in June.
I would like to thank the Office of Creative & Communications for their collaboration and leadership on this project. I would also like to thank each of the MedNet content owners for their support.
If you would like to learn more about this project, please visit our project page. For additional support, please email fom.mednetmodernization@ubc.ca.
