IT Administration

Administrative duties of the Information Technology (IT) department include coordination and oversight of all information and voice communication systems, and providing leadership in the use of information technology throughout City government. IT provides staff dedicated to providing high quality information technology services to City employees including a training lab used for general and specialized technology training.

Training Lab

A key element to success in serving our citizens is developing a workforce that can effectively utilize the technologies of the modern workplace. Employee training is critical to build the skills needed to serve the City's citizens with speed and accuracy.

The IT training lab is also available to departments for additional specialized computer training. Many departments have utilized the IT training lab for application-specific training for their employees.

Technical Training

IT staff provides technical training to appropriate departmental personnel, particularly in areas of network administration and new technology roll-outs.

Tech Center

IT provides select technical equipment for occasional use by other City departments on a loaned basis. Departments may borrow laptops, projectors and digital cameras and thus avoid spending scarce funds to acquire equipment that may receive only occasional use.
