Schools are implementing our fully integrated SEVIS Easy Module that provides comprehensive compliance and will soon be going live with the software and its SEVIS interface. Response has been strong and we definitely have our work cut out for us in the months ahead! As implementations move forward, we will have updates and highlights to share at the NAFSA regional conferences starting later this month.
Our team of ISSS experts are assuring that we address the highest needs of an ISSS office. |

In a previous Terra Dotta Newsletter, I highlighted the efforts of the Institute of International Education (IIE) to support an increase in study abroad participation at U.S. colleges and universities through their Generation Study Abroad initiative. Since that time, I have been impressed by the continuing effort by IIE to move this initiative forward. As I will highlight later, the recent IIE Generation Study Abroad Summit was an important move forward by the field to focus on increasing both for-credit study abroad and other non-credit international experiences for students. An impressive part of the proceedings is that notes were taken during sessions and PowerPoint presentations have also been made accessible following the end of the Summit (more about that later).

Did you recently inherit a TDS site from someone else? Are you hoping to learn more about a site that you didn't originally build? Let's do some sleuthing on a pre-existing site and uncover what programs, processes, and people are there, and the rationale for why they might have been built that way.
Presenter: Elizabeth Lostetter
The majority of Terra Dotta clients rely on an integration between their Terra Dotta Software and campus data systems in order to log in and evaluate applicants. In addition, an integration is required for the SEVIS module functionality. This session will cover the basics of how an integration actually works. We’ll cover integration structures, various options for campus logins, and go over examples of data fields commonly included in integrations. No IT background is required for this session. Knowledge is power - gain control of your integration!
Presenter: Steve Sweitzer
You have learned the basics of how the new task and workflow systems function in TDS 15, but how can you start putting them to work most effectively? This webinar will go through a detailed implementation and demonstration of a few different types of workflows that you can start automating your office processes with these new tools. This webinar will cover both the building of the workflows themselves as well as configuring the triggers that will get them running.
