Resource Guide

There is such a wealth of resources available to learn about Kuali that it can be overwhelming. This page is meant to provide a guide to these resources in order to help you find the information you need. We start with "high-level" resources for people new to Kuali, and drill progressively deeper for people more and more experienced with Kuali projects and software.

Although all of the resources cited on this page are available to the public, some of them contain restricted information as well. Kuali community members who need access to these systems should read the Kuali Toolset wiki page for instructions.

No matter what your interest level in Kuali is, we recommend that everybody learns how to stay up-to-date on Kuali developments and events by visiting our follow Kuali page. We have tried to make it easy to follow Kuali by piping our News and other feeds to facebook and twitter.
