Debra Connick, the vice chancellor of technology, research and information systems for California Community Colleges said in a recent interview with Ed Tech Magazine she hopes the system can improve the accessibility of its IT systems. Connick said proper data governance could help ensure the proper administrators have the information they need to make clear and informed decisions, but she stressed the importance of maintaining human processes and approaches to digital safety, saying people are just as essential as security tech in keeping college data secured. Connick also cited the utility of data systems to help keep costs reasonable and reduce the amount of unnecessary credits students take. She also espoused the benefits of initializing and growing the use of a centralized learning management system that can support robust communication between educators, students and administrators.
