OWL Sakai Migration Projects

About Migration Projects 

The OWL Migration Plan was conceptualized to run in phases since its inception in 2022. As of Fall 2024, our future phases are running as separate projects following our successful completion of the Academic Course Migration phase. Our 4 main migration projects are Sakai Project Site Migration (to OWL Brightspace or another solution), Training Site Migrations, Western Continuing Studies Migration, and the Academic Course Migration (completed).
