Project Services Present Poster at EDUCAUSE 2014 Annual Conference

Mark Ritchie and Rhian Davies from our Project Management Organisation (PMO) were invited to present a poster session at the 2014 EDUCAUSE conference in Florida.

The poster focussed on the variety of training and support options that we offer to our staff and students to help them deliver successful projects.  The post was very well well received and generated a lot of interest and new contacts across the educational sector.

Staff Development - It's Certified!

Staff development programmes which incorporate certification provide a great way of ensuring the knowledge and competence of staff in specific IT support functions or technologies. Certification programs reinforce external best practice and play an important role in developing and maintaining effective and sustainable IT services for our students and staff.
