What do students experience?
Once a student has logged in with their Single Sign-On (SSO), the content is personalised to give each student their own calendar, email and library loans and access to a range of other central services and resources. Visibility of college dashboards is based on the student's affiliation.
The project is working closely with the Identity Transformation Programme within the wider Digital Transformation programme at Oxford to see how we can get more data to refine the audience targeted content further (e.g. department related content or bespoke student group content).

Who is the supplier?
Following an extensive tender process, Ready Education were selected by Oxford as the preferred supplier with their MyDay product. It is a cloud-based platform, available as both a web portal and a mobile app, used by over 700 educational institutions and reaches in excess of 7 million students.
At Oxford, MyDay is branded as MyOxford.
Has MyOxford been designed with accessibility standards and usability in mind?
The project team are working in partnership with the supplier, Ready Education, to ensure the app is AA compliant as possible with WCAG 2.2 digital accessibility standards. The app, as we have purchased it from Ready Education, has already been audited and we are aware of some known accessibility issues. We have prepared an accessibility checklist for new features as they are added.
There is an Accessibility tile in the app which links to a website with the accessibility statement, including a list of known accessibility issues and suggestions for workarounds.
