Event Details

Is your school's technology plan constantly playing catch-up?

Join us for this meetup where we'll move beyond "crisis mode" and discuss how to build a proactive, future-ready technology road-map.

This session is designed for IT leaders and administrators who want to make smarter decisions about their technology investments, from networking infrastructure to vendor partnerships. We'll explore strategies for getting ahead of problems, optimizing your current systems, and securing long-term success.

In this meetup, we'll discuss:

  • Proactive Planning: How to spot the signs of a reactive tech plan and the best practices for building a strategic, long-term road-map.

  • Networking for Success: The key questions to ask before a major networking upgrade to ensure scalability and avoid costly "rip-and-replace" scenarios.

  • Vendor Relationships & Hardware Refresh: A deep dive into the pros and cons of buy-back programs, and how to evaluate vendor proposals to get the most value for your school.

  • Optimizing Your Ecosystem: How to identify and eliminate technological waste, right-size your tech infrastructure, and track the ROI of your purchases—even for intangible returns.
