Brock University is making some changes to the way it communicates to faculty and staff.<\/p>\n
The SharePoint @ Brock<\/em><\/a> intranet web page and The Weekly Update email newsletter were launched in 2018 as internal news sources and event listings for Brock employees. At the same time, The Brock News<\/em><\/a> continued to be a main source of news for both internal and external audiences, with many staff and faculty receiving daily emails listing the top Brock News <\/em>articles of the day.<\/p>\n Beginning Monday, Jan. 3, University Marketing and Communications will streamline communications to employees by posting all internal communications to The Brock News.<\/em><\/p>\n This will make it less confusing than having two sources of employee news, while also making it easier for faculty, staff and departments to share news on social media platforms.<\/p>\n The final Weekly Update email newsletter will be sent out Thursday, Dec. 16.<\/p>\n Moving forward, all news items will be posted to The Brock News <\/em>and departments are encouraged to post all events \u2014 including those targeted primarily to employees \u2014 on ExperienceBU<\/a>. New tags in ExperienceBU allow employees to filter events they are welcome to attend. ‘<\/span>Faculty\/Staff welcome’ includes events open to the entire Brock community, including employees. ‘Faculty\/Staff only’ includes events only available for employees to attend.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n SharePoint @ Brock<\/em> will continue to exist as a hub of information. Employees will be able to find frequently accessed links and RSS feeds of news and events.<\/p>\n For more information on communications at Brock or to suggest a story idea, please email Dan Dakin, Manager, Communications and Media Relations, at ddakin@brocku.ca<\/a> or contact campusnews@brocku.ca<\/a><\/p>\n
