Academic Impressions
Academic Impressions transitioned to a close effective June 1, 2023.
Complete any courses in progress on the platform or those that may be of interest to you, before this deadline.
The U of A Customer Service Training open in a new tab modules in Academic Impressions are unaffected and will continue to be available until March 2025.
Supervisors are strongly encouraged to support employee professional development by allowing them to attend our in-person training and, if necessary, cover the cost of travel.
This decision was carefully considered and based on a number of factors:
- Client feedback on the platform consistently indicated that the content is not a good fit for the U of A or the Canadian context.
- Employee usage of the platform is low and represents a small fraction of our faculty and staff population.
- A recent increase to the annual subscription has made the platform cost prohibitive, particularly given the low employee usage and fit.
