Call for Proposals for the 2023 IT Community Conference
Seeking proposals for the UIC IT Community Conference
On March 21st, UIC will hold the IT Community Conference in UIC’s Forum. The day represents an opportunity to share with each other and others the great things happening in our UIC IT community, plans for what is ahead in the near and long-term for UIC, and any novel ideas from the IT community on how to solve problems at UIC and improve our processes with technology.
Innovate. Advance. Discover Heading link
We want you to share your IT ideas and happenings at the IT Community Conference. Our theme for the event is ‘Innovate.Advance.Discover’. which should offer some inspiration for your session ideas.
Additional topic ideas could include projects and updates from your own unit or college that would be of broad interest, ideas around our UIC IT Strategy http://it.uic.edu/strategy and ideas around the 2023 Educause Top 10 IT Issues in Higher Education https://er.educause.edu/articles/2022/10/top-10-it-issues-2023-foundation-models, to name a few.
Submit a Proposal Heading link
We have room for about 20-24 sessions throughout the day and we will filter/choose sessions that look to have the broadest impact and interest for UIC. Please read our “How to Submit a Proposal” page and submit your proposal before February 15, 2023.
We also need some volunteers from the IT community to help the day go well. If you want to get involved, but maybe are not ready to lead a session, this is a great way to both help out and learn as we plan and then hold the event. Please e-mail cio@uic.edu if you are interested.
The day should be fun with abundant food, opportunities to learn, and especially opportunities to engage and share with your UIC colleagues.
