How does our institution migrate to Turnitin Similarity?

• Pre-migration - Stage 1: Planning the migration
• During the Pre-migration phase, you will consider a list of questions from Turnitin to plan your institution’s migration from Unicheck to your new Turnitin solution and facilitate the most-effective conversations within your institution as you plan.
• This is when you will also need to choose the desired migration window. Each migration window will last for 4 weeks, during which time you will have access to both your Unicheck account and your new Turnitin account.
• Migration - Stage 2: Setup, testing and moving to Turnitin
• During the migration phase, you will gain access to your new Turnitin solution. During this "migration window" you will set up your new account, test its functionality, and complete the transition to your new Turnitin solution. You will also have access to resources for onboarding and training.
• Post-migration - Stage 3: Support and follow-up
• During the post-migration phase, your institution will begin using your new Turnitin solution. You will continue to have access to onboarding and training resources as well as the Turnitin Customer Support team to address any questions or concerns.
