SCCC Faculty & Staff: Get Ready for Jenzabar One

Jenzabar One (J1) is launching in November 2025, bringing an upgraded experience that will replace CX and modernize how our campus operates. This page will help you prepare, know what to expect during the transition, and understand the changes once J1 is live.

For Faculty & Staff

Key Dates and Deadlines

  • Stay Informed: Watch your email for important J1 updates.
  • Training: If your role requires J1 training, you will be contacted directly by the Project Team. Please prioritize these sessions, review the materials, and watch the training videos as they are shared. This preparation is critical for a smooth go-live.
  • Fiscal Processing:
    • As we approach the J1 system conversion deadline of October 15th, please ensure that your purchase requisitions are submitted by September 15th. 
    • Please ensure that the delivery can be arranged by October 10th. 
    • Note: Your Purchasing and Budget Team will be closing all purchase orders in our system and will then need to reissue them using the new system.  
    • Please also note that between October 15th and November 10th, we will be going dark and will not be able to use either system for requests.

For Faculty

What to Expect

  • System Upgrade: Migration is scheduled to begin on October 15 and is expected to be completed by November 10, 2025. During this time, my.sussex and CX will be read-only, and some services will run slower due to manual processing.
  • Canvas: No changes. Canvas will continue to operate normally. However, during the migration, email communication with students through my.sussex will not be available; faculty should use Canvas for student communications.

For Canvas-related questions, contact Melissa DeJoseph at mdejoseph@sussex.edu.

What is Changing in J1

  • A Fresh Look: my.sussex will have an updated design with familiar functionality.
  • J1 Web Portal: Faculty will access courses, enter grades, email rosters, and more through the J1 Web portal, accessible via a new link on my.sussex.
  • Training & Support: Step-by-step login instructions and system guides will be shared before November 11.
