Linda John, Director of Academic Computing, College of Staten Island

Patricia Kahn, Ph.D., CIO and AVP for Information Technology Services, College of Staten Island

Most institutions of higher learning are providing IT services, training, and distance education remotely. At CSI, what makes us stand out is our all-in-one approach! We were able to take our creativity and out-of-the-box thinking to keep the campus functioning, while staying within severe budget constraints. Consider us a multi-functional tool with all the attachments that you cannot live without! Attend this presentation and learn about our approach to offering IT services in order to accommodate faculty, staff, and students - some of which include VPN access, remote desktop support, virtual labs, virtual training, and much more.
