ANR Update

Dear Colleagues: This message provides essential information on the implementation of the new UC ANR website using the Drupal Content Management System (CMS). The IWP project will enhance UC Agriculture and Natural Resources' digital presence for both internal web editors and our clientele.

Dear Colleagues, We are excited to begin recruiting for the new academic positions announced by Vice President Humiston in May. As communicated, the new UCCE recruitments will be released in small batches over the next several months.

We are happy to announce that we are approaching the go-live date for our new ServiceNow platform for Information Technology and Human Resources! This upgrade to ServiceNow replaces Zendesk that has been used by IT and HR.
