Word of the Week

While “woof” is my favorite word, there are many other fun words that are part of the ctcLink vocabulary. Here’s this week’s word (find others on the Terminology page):

Delta DogctcLink: ctcLink is the name for the PeopleSoft enterprise resource planning (ERP) project for Washington’s community and technical college system. The “ctc” stands for “community and technical colleges.” ctcLink will replace our aging legacy systems, such as the current Financial Management System (FMS), Student Management System (SMS) and Payroll/Personnel Management System (PPMS). It will be used by all 34 of Washington’s community and technical colleges.
