What is Programme director's annual clock for educational processes?

The Programme director's annual clock is a tool which shows you an overview of Aalto University's time-related educational processes and their subprocesses /tasks.
The annual clock is a way  to find further instructions on the processes, as well as links to tools and more specific guidelines and instructions.

The annual clock is currently in pilot phase.

The deployment into Aalto-level use is planned for December 2022.
When in wider use, every member of the university can have access to view the annual clock.
A defined group of Aalto Learning services staff have the editing rights to the contents (see section Ohjeet Vuosikellon editointiin)
