Drifting Assets, Computer Theft and Shrinking Budgets

As a technology leader, you recognize that student laptop programs are faced with challenges in a tough economy: reduced budgets, struggles to fund 1:1 computing and staff layoffs. IT needs to be seen as essential to learning and cost-effective. That’s why accountability is critical. Proving that you can account for every computer in your district, and prevent theft, can save thousands of dollars and keep your students on the edge of technology.

In this webinar, the Chief Technology Officer of Community Unit School District 300 (CUSD) will discuss how he does exactly that, and how you can do the same. Initially, CUSD struggled to protect and inventory 5,400 laptops and desktops. However, after activating an anti-theft tracking service, they gained complete visibility into their computers – allowing them to significantly cut down on administration costs.
