The "MnITcareers" Strategic Leadership Team (SLT) works on implementing programs and projects that increase interest in, and awareness of IT careers for high school and college students. The team comprises students, instructors, and career counselors from secondary education, post secondary education as well as IT professionals.

Members reviewed results of their online survey and ranked the strategies for pursuing their goals. They are identifying their "stop/start/continue" ratings of projects using the GPS approach: Goals + Planning = Success.

The IT Industry Strategic Leadership Team-primarily IT industry leaders-provides insight and advice to the Center on ways to meet strategy 4 through developing and providing products that enhance individual career and organizational success in IT.  A strategic business plan that will guide future efforts is under development.

The Education to Employment Alignment Strategic Leadership Team formed to address strategy 1. After an initial meeting to establish their business model, members launched a research survey to ascertain the best methods to meet their goals. Your ideas, thoughts, and voice can be part of this important initiative by completing the online survey. 

The Center is collaborating with alumni and foundation directors serving Twin Cities-area MnSCU colleges on how to best serve their alumni within the Twin Cities IT Alumni Association (strategy 3). An alumni Board of Advisors serves as the strategy team for this initiative. Their first workshop "Interviewing Presence for IT Professionals" will be held Weds., 23 September, at MCTC Whitney Hall Library 3000 at 6:30 PM.
