Re: The Future of Post Pandemic ‘WorkSpace’ Planning: Tri-Campus Working Group

The future of Post Pandemic ‘WorkSpace’ Planning: Tri-Campus Working Group endeavours to propose guidelines and best practices that help direct the University in decision-making on the types of space(s) to build, renovate and rehabilitate that will be most beneficial to the broader institution over the long-term. In the short-term, the Group provides guidelines and best practices meant to be in effect throughout the remainder of the 2022-2023 academic year, after which they will be thoroughly re-evaluated as to what to maintain and what to adjust moving forward. A document providing the Group’s Context, Objectives, and the proposed Guidelines & Best Practices can be downloaded here.

The Group’s efforts around WorkSpace planning have been in parallel to other divisions that focus on the technical and operational planning critical to supporting our spaces.
