Recreation & Wellness FY17 Impact Report FY17 Impact Report | Page 19

Fusion Software In January of 2017, the Fusion customer relationship management (CRM) system was fully integrated throughout the department. The software enabled the department to better host membership accounts, point of sale, equipment check-out, and program registration. In addition, features such as the online portal, robust reporting and accounting capabilities became accessible. PA/Sound System In June, a new and improved sound system was installed inside the Student Recreation Center. The site-wide speaker system provided the capability to deliver a diverse mix of music throughout the facility. The speaker system also allows for communication to members through a PA system. In addition to the facilities’ overall sound system upgrade, the group exercise studios and the Outdoor Adventure Center received enhanced speakers and a user-friendly control interface. Software Collaboration, EMS In partnership with Leadership & Student Involvement, Recreation & Wellness spearheaded the research and implementation of the EMS scheduling platform. This software provides students, faculty/staff and space coordinators a method to easily submit and approve requests for campus space. This change has expedited communication with those involved in the reservation process and has improved the overall event planning experience for ODU students. Sport Club Athletic Training Graduate Assistants Through a partnership with the College of Health Sciences and the Dean of Students Office, the Sport Club unit area was able to secure two Athletic Training Graduate Assistants. The trainers provide service during club practices and games and are available for individual treatment during clinic hours. odu.edu/recwell 19
