Standardization Across the Board

Standardization is essential in order to deploy helpful and comparable training materials across all areas of training. With 25 + developers from all areas of campus, we must come together as a team and commit to standardization. For this purpose, a "Styles and Standards" document has been organized, detailing various aspects of training which are required to be uniform. Remember: Training materials should reflect all aspects of the "UPK Styles and Standards" document. Click here to read more.

 

Moving or Backing Up Local UPK Files

Stored topics that aren't published are saved in the UPK Library on the computer where it was created. If you want to share your topics with another UPK developer, if you're getting a new computer and don't want to lose your work, or if you just want a backup of the files, the easiest method is to export your UPK modules/sections/topics.
