Friendly Edits: are revisions to policy or procedure that do not change the intent or requirements, and do not have a significant impact on users. These include: changes to names and contact information; document information changes (e.g. document title); changes to the offices of accountability or administrative responsibility; and, re-arranging or re-wording content to improve clarity. Campus-wide communications are not sent out for these types of updates. Always refer to the on-line version for the most up to date version of UAPPOL policy and procedure.
Legislative/Regulatory Changes: revisions to policy or procedure resulting from changes to federal, provincial, or municipal legislation or regulations do not require any governance review or approval given the explicit requirement for the University community to comply. If the legislative/regulatory change requires a modification to a process and/or behavior, then the Office of Administrative Responsibility communicates the changes to stakeholders.
