Whether you have been in WashU IT for 10 days or 10 years, sometimes there is confusion concerning the use of acronyms and terms. A Knowledge Base article through ServiceNow provides a quick reference to some commonly used acronyms and what they stand for. (Click “log in” on the right side of the red Knowledge Bases banner to gain access to the article.)
This tool can serve as a valuable resource whether you are in the onboarding stage at WashU or need a refresher. The article is editable and you are encouraged to explore and add items to it.
Expanding this list to include other acronyms will help your peers in IT and those across the university by offering them a broader understanding of terms, available programs, names of departments and agencies, commonly referenced jargon, and more. Your assistance in building out this reference document is appreciated.
