New Video Content Management System: YuJa to Replace VidGrid

YuJa is our new video platform that allows faculty to record, upload and share videos for students! It is integrated right into Canvas and will be replacing VidGrid over the current academic year.

With VidGrid's announcement that the company would no longer be servicing the higher education industry, the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) needed to pilot a replacement product for creating, editing, managing, hosting, streaming, and captioning instructional video. The YuJa pilot was run in 2021-22 and received extremely positive feedback from the faculty and students who participated. The University of Nebraska (NU) System has decided to move forward with full implementation of YuJa as our video content management solution replacement of VidGrid.

The 2022-23 school year is a migration year, and UNO faculty are encouraged to begin trying out YuJa now. VidGrid will be decommissioned at UNO in the Summer of 2023, with all instructional content being migrated to YuJa for faculty.

Visit the link below for more information about what YuJa is, where you can find it, what to expect regarding transitioning and migration to YuJa, a list of workshops on YuJa Basics, and helpful resources. If you are interested in learning more about the YuJa pilot and migration or want to begin using YuJa now, please reach out to Rick Murch-Shafer who can assist.
