Workday

Workday is an innovative, cloud-based platform for the modern and mobile workforce. It was developed as the first higher-education based human resource and financial management solution in the cloud, and it has expanded to include student functionality. Over the next three years, Workday will replace Banner, which runs many of our human resources, payroll, finance, grant, and student system processes.
Note: You will find FAQs, job aids (cheat sheets), and videos in the WPI Hub, including the Workday Student page. Please note that you will need to Sign In to see documentation available only to the community.
