The 2022-2023 academic year is coming to an end! With it, Education Commons is reflecting on how we supported the community from September to April, based on all the requests we received via the Online Service Hub, onsite interactive service hub, drop-ins and private consultations 

A landmark year for the Online Service Hub 

For the 2022-2023 academic year, Education Commons received 3171 requests  And we are pleased to say we found a solution for 2908 of these requests, a completion rate of 91.53%! That’s above the . 

We’re also happy to have brought the Department of Leadership, Higher & Adult Education (LHAE) aboard the Online Service Hub, demonstrating a new way for Education Commons to partner with other departments at , optimizing and making more efficient support relationships and structures at . If you want to see your department in the Online Service Hub, please contact Education Commons to begin the conversation. 

How metrics guide our continual improvement 

Every week, Education Commons reviews weekly metrics at an all-staff Teams' meeting. It allows us to keep a finger on the pulse – whether we have responded to all requests, what’s still outstanding, and what clarity is needed from a broader team in order to address a request. 

Education Commons leadership reviews trends and focuses the department’s energy to address any emerging movements, taking action to ensure continual improvement to the services that we provide.
