The recent change to the ITEC Bylaws and its resulting cancellation of the ITEC Training Program brings an opportunity for the SUNY Center for Professional Development to extend to campuses a CPD Technical Training Program, which broadens its scope beyond ITEC supported services and creates a catalog of Technical Training Opportunities to meet campuses where they are today. 

With a greater emphasis placed on serving remote students and faculty and a focus on creating secure virtual and online environments to provide even the most fundamental functions of our campuses, technical training is even more essential than ever. SUNY CPD affirms its commitment to providing the most cost-effective and innovative technical training opportunities. The recent pandemic has led us to adapt our in-person training delivery and enabled instructor-led, live-online workshops and events. Participants have recently studied:

● Administering System Center Configuration Manager
● SUNY Business Intelligence
● MS Azure
● Information Security through the INFOSEC Skills
● Managing Campus Networks with Aruba AirWave
● Microsoft 365 Identity and Services
● JAMF Cloud and MAC OS Provisioning
● GIAC – Security Essentials
● Project Management Fundamentals (Advanced in Development)

We ask that you inform the SUNY CPD of your intent to continue membership through the New CPD Technical Program by May 1st, in order for us to plan for 2021/2022 programming and budget cycle. Please contact us directly with your intent to renew and/or any questions via email at cpdinfo@suny.edu - or complete the online form which indicates your intent to join the CPD Technical Program. You can also read more about the new program here.
