South Central RIC

The #SouthCentralRIC values our employees and strives to create a #positiveworkexperience. Our current Creativity and Innovation Challenge meets these goals by engaging staff in the process of providing ideas that might improve and strengthen the work we do. #collaboration #strengthensupport

One perk of working at the RIC is seeing your kids when they participate in @BTBOCES activities. #SouthCentralRIC staff, Ryan, stopped by the BT BOCES Elementary Engineering Day this morning to support his son.

Each summer, the #southcentralRIC data integration team partners with #schooldistricts on planned #dataintegrations to prepare for the #startofschool. Once school resumes, the integration team works closely with the Service Desk to address unplanned integration needs. Currently, the team is averaging a 4-week turnaround for each of the 300+ requests submitted since 7/15. #edtech #teamwork #schoolsupport

The #SouthCentralRIC had a very busy and productive start to the #2324schoolyear. In September, staff handled over 3,000 #supportcalls and closed over 17,000 #supporttickets. In addition to calls and tickets, our users viewed our public-facing #knowledgebase content over 4,100 times. Many other support groups spent a significant amount of time supporting the dozens of mission critical services we deliver to our component school districts on a daily basis. Many thanks to all our outstanding #schoolsupport staff for helping our users get through another busy September. #edtech #teamwork #collaboration

Don't get hooked! Phishing emails are sneaky bait trying to reel you in, so here are some tips for spotting a phishing attempt: 1) They create a sense of urgency or claim to need help. 2) They ask for personal or financial info. 3) They want you to download a file or click on a link. Don’t take the bait – delete or report them! #SecureOurWorld #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth
