Description
March 2023 TechCheck: A Technology Action Plan Workshop (2-Part Tech Impact Course) Offered in Partnership with: Tech Impact |
Making the case for technology improvements is always a challenge. Often, the technology projects are not approved because they are not seen to be directly related to mission or program outcomes. In this 2-part course, PANO partner Tech Impact will provide a structured approach to developing a technology plan that provides current state assessment, gap analysis, projects and budget that close gaps as well as shows how those improvements will help your staff be more productive and your organization meet mission. At course completion, you will have a written TechCheck report to share with your leadership team in order to get the approval and budget that you need to move ahead with technology improvements.
