Together with your fellow functional administrators, you take on assignments within ART A&R. By working together, we can retain knowledge and reduce risks.

Moreover, collaboration helps to gain a broader perspective on problems and solutions, leading to better decision-making and higher quality of our services.
In addition to working in your team, we believe it is important that you continue to share and gain knowledge from peers within EDSN. This is why we work with Community of Practices where Functional Administrators from all teams meet regularly to discuss new developments, share knowledge and continuously see how things can be improved within EDSN.
