Important Issues this Autumn
Well belated summer! I hope everyone got to recharge their batteries and are now ready for the autumn. The editorial that was issued just before the summer dealt with K2’s new strategy document and it stated that we would use it actively in our efforts to enhance K2. The strategy document concerns us all and you can find it here if you need to freshen it up. The K2 management will have a particular focus on the following issues in the strategy document this fall: Recruitment, publication activity, use of MittUiB, Canvas and Inspera and financial reporting. We will come back to these issues in future editorials. When it comes to recruitment, the following should be noted: The K2 economy is now balanced, and in the next few years there are some natural age retirements. This opens opportunities for strategic recruitment.
Øystein Bruserud was the head of the Recruitment committee, who recommended that when recruiting after retirement we should check first that the teaching requirements within that particular field is covered. Then the vacant position should be advertised as broad as possible to ensure the best possible recruitment. I think these are good thoughts.
To be continued.

IT UIB announces the following:
Everyone at K2 will now have the opportunity to run Skype for Business – IMs . There are now many who got in the system so it would be nice if you contact BRITA if anyone experience denied access to the service. A few may have errors in the e-mail address , this will not be generated automatically . There is a small catch – those who do not have Exchange ( Outlook) will experience the service as not very user friendly . A good option for those will be to switch to Exchange
