Town Hall: Navigating IT Services During COVID-19 - Sharing of Best Practices

Recorded June 02, 2020

Paul Burke

SVP of School Partnerships, Ocelot

Joel Laos

Director of Client Success, Ocelot

We have all entered the “new normal” of COVID-19 life. Schools have transitioned to remote work and virtual student experiences. CIOs and IT professionals have more responsibility than ever before to navigate challenges, lead innovation, and find solutions.

Watch our interactive, virtual town hall where your colleagues:

Shared the challenges you are facing
Received input from your peers and Ocelot on overcoming barriers
Learned best practices directly from your colleagues in the IT community

We covered topics such as supporting remote work and learning environments, managing student and staff communication, help desk capacity and options, budget management and short vs long term decision making.

We also shared the technologies and solutions schools are finding the most helpful, including those powered by AI.

This town hall was about exchanging ideas and building community.

Special thanks fo Rob Stirton, VP of Institutional Effectiveness & CIO of College of Morris, for his participation!
