How can ITS possibly afford 9 new staff positions given budget cuts and consolidation?
Response: ITS is working with the EVC and Planning & Budget offices to understand what the ITS budget will be. The positions posted are considered essential to the effective management of a consolidated organization. Also, there are a few of these positions that are connected to the need to support the technology implementation parts of the business transformation process. It is expected that efficiencies will produce some level of savings, and that there would be some open positions that would provide a funding source to help deal with these new positions. EBC, which includes the EVC and Chancellor, has reviewed and approved these requests.
