Goals & Issues

The mission of the Technology Committee is to provide organization, recommendations, direction, and standards for campus technology.

All the above listed members are voting members but the Committee will rely heavily upon the Administrative capacity to organize and promote process much like the College relies upon them to orchestrate the publication of the College Course Catalog and Schedule.

The Committee will:

  • Develop and update 3-year Instructional Technology Plan
  • Establish technology standards and procedures for the College
  • Determine technology needs and priorities to support all instruction, services, and administration
