Optimization Review
Parkland School Division, in collaboration with IBM Canada K12 Education, is conducting an Information Technology Optimization and Organization Review. This initiative is a crucial step towards enhancing the use of technology within PSD. A confidential survey will contribute to an overarching report that reflects diverse perspectives from across the division. The insights gained from this review will play a pivotal role in informing decisions to advance the delivery of Technology Services in PSD.
