Directors of technology and facilities came together at the May 30 CNYRIC Tech Collaborative meeting, with the goal of fostering a more collegial and effective working relationship. Recognizing the interdependence of these teams within districts, the meeting provided an opportunity to learn more about each department's respective roles, discuss more seamless project collaboration, identify shared interdepartmental challenges, and share successful examples of what's worked.
The agenda included an overview on collaboration, featuring a discussion on facilities security conducted by CNYRIC Assistant Director Josh Becker, followed by department spotlights on Fayetteville-Manlius schools with insights from the district's Matt Dean (IT) and Geoff Brown (facilities), and small group discussions to address potential hurdles, successful collaborations, and possible improvements.
