Top-Ten IT Issues, 2008 (EDUCAUSE Review) | EDUCAUSE CONNECT

Educause has posted the annual Top 10 Issues article. This is the 9th year that Educause has surveyed chief information officers at member institutions. Not surprisingly, there’s not much academic on the list; items relating to Course Management Systems and Faculty Development, Support and Training no longer make the top 10.

1. Security
2. Administrative/ERP/Information Systems
3. Funding IT
4. Infrastructure
5. Identity/Access Management
6. Disaster Recovery / Business Continuity
7. Governance, Organization, and Leadership
8. Change Management
9. E-Learning / Distance Education
10. Staffing / HR Management / Training

The members of the current issues committee have identified some notable trends including the replacement of strategic planning with change management, and the re-emergence of staffing as a top 10 issue. As usual, Educause does an excellent job of providing resources for folks who are interested in learning more.
