2022–23 Catalog: Catalog/Curriculum Training Video, Catalog Working Sessions
Greetings, catalog reviewers,
As previewed, we kicked off the workflows for academic program pages in the 2022–23 catalog last week. If you're first up in the workflow, you should have received an automated email for any page(s) ready for your review with a link to access your approval queue. (If you're set up to edit/approve catalog pages but not as the first reviewer, you'll receive an email as soon as those ahead of you in the workflow have completed their review and approved the page(s)).
For pages where you're updating curriculum information (e.g., program requirements, plans of study, learning outcomes), don't forget to:
- Submit your curriculum edits through the . (The change type at the top of the form should be set to "Catalog.")
- Approve both the catalog page and the corresponding CIM program revision from . (We recommend approving both at the same time.)
To learn more, see our process changes and known issues webpage.
We could also use your help ensuring that your program information was migrated correctly into CIM—if you notice content that is not displaying as expected, please reach out. We appreciate your patience during this transition!

- Navigate CIM’s automated review and approval workflow
- Approve submitted revisions
Sign Up for a Catalog Working Session
Additional dates are now available for catalog working sessions through the first review deadline (Friday, Dec. 17). If this is your first year working on the catalog, we encourage you to sign up so we can give you a quick orientation. Working sessions are also a great opportunity for returning reviewers to get one-on-one training, troubleshooting and/or advice from a member of the catalog team.
