ITS is in the process of completing a major upgrade to EMS.  The tentative date for implementation is April 6, 2021.  The changes to the EMS desktop client are cosmetic and users should not notice any differences in functionality.  Users of the online virtual EMS system should contact Emily Vaughn for more information on how the upgrade will affect that system.
