Workday Learning to Launch Jan. 4, 2021

Workday Learning will be the new home for UA System Workday training beginning Jan. 4, 2021. All UASYS content will be moved from the Workday Training App over to Workday Learning, which will be accessed directly in Workday. Employees will no longer have access to the Workday Training App, but will still be able to access print and video UASYS content (i.e. Quick Reference Guides and videos) via the UASYS Intranet. Self-paced Computer-Based Training (i.e. Workday Fundamentals) will only be available via Workday Learning. 

New Workday Training Website for UA Fayetteville Training

The training materials currently available through the  UA System Intranet (which will be available through Workday Learning)  have  been harmonized across all University of Arkansas System institutions (UASYS) and may not completely align with UA Fayetteville processes.  UA Fayetteville-specific content is continually being created to address training needs and can be found on the new UA Fayetteville Workday Training website. 

The materials provided on the new Workday Training website include both UASYS and UA Fayetteville materials and are marked as such.  They are intended to work together to provide robust training for UA Fayetteville employees. Although we will be able to provide UA Fayetteville content via Workday Learning in the future, at this time, all UA Fayetteville-specific training is only available on the Workday Training website. 

Navigating the New Workday Training Website 

You can access the UA Fayetteville Workday Training site one of two ways:  

All personnel who have a UARK email address will be able to access the website, which is secured through multi-factor authentication.  While some content will be limited based on security roles, the majority of it will be available for all employees.    

Content on the website is divided up into five categories:  

  • Employee Self-Service
  • Manager Self-Service
  • Tips & Tricks
  • Finance Workday Training
  • HCM Workday Training

You can navigate the content using the navbar, clicking on one of the thumbnails on the homepage or entering search terms in the search bar.  The homepage will also contain information about upcoming training sessions and office hours. 

Please note that computer-based training modules (i.e., Workday Fundamentals) are not available on the Workday Training site.  

More information on how to utilize Workday Learning will be coming soon. Employees will receive information about the move to Workday Learning via email and in a Workday announcement.
