Cal Net Technology Group Launches Education IT Peer Group for Southern California Decision Makers

Southern California’s Leading IT Consulting and Computer Services Company Will Facilitate Technology-Focused Discussion among Private Education Sector Administrators and Key IT Personnel

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cal Net Technology Group, recently named one of the fastest growing private companies in the U.S. by Inc. Magazine, has announced the launch of “Cal Net Education Peer Groups” (CNEPG). The goal of CNEPG is to use the power of collaborative discussion and learning to push the private education sector further down the technology road by facilitating group discussion and accountability among peers who share the same needs at their respective educational institutions.

“Cal Net currently participates in a similar style peer group for the IT Services industry and we have been leaders in that group for over 4 years. Because of this experience we feel as though we are in a good position to bring this model to our partners in education.”

The initiative will officially kick off on Tuesday, May 4^th when a handful of Southern California-based educators and decision makers will meet with Cal Net’s chief executive officer, Zack Schuler, along with other key Cal Net personnel, at Cal State Northridge. The event (8:30am – 2:30pm) will include topics such as:

• Distance learning and current/future plans around delivery and support.
• Utilization of students and faculty as helpdesk support, and how to deploy, deliver, and manage this practice effectively.
• One laptop per student initiative, and how to deploy, manage, and secure the process.
• How to best allocate IT budgets.

“We look forward to collaborating with our Education IT clients in order to help shape the technology needs of the private education sector, particularly as administrators look for cost-effective and efficient ways of utilizing internal resources,” remarked Schuler. “Cal Net currently participates in a similar style peer group for the IT Services industry and we have been leaders in that group for over 4 years. Because of this experience we feel as though we are in a good position to bring this model to our partners in education.”
