SIM and Microsoft Partnering on IT Career Seminars
Jack Becker at the University of North Texas tells me that the Society for Information Management and Microsoft will be co-sponsoring 12-14 seminars across the U.S. this Fall. The seminars are intended for students and and have the objectives:
- To increase the number of students enrolling in IT curriculums in 4 year colleges, and two year certificate programs.
- To influence high school students to consider entering colleges that offer IT programs and prepare for application to those colleges.
- To expose students to the opportunities and rewards for IT professionals in the business world.
- Expose students to the “Real Life of IT.”
I looked on the SIM web site and I don't see any information. If you want to know more or possibly host one of these events, you can get more information from (Dr) Jack Becker at: becker@unt.edu.
