CCCU Technology Conference 2006
Cedarville University hosted the 2006 technology conference sponsored by the Council for Christian Colleges and Universities. The material on this site is being kept online for attendees to followup from the conference.
This year's conference is designed to help information services professionals at CCCU campuses make effective use of computer and networking technology.
Our theme "Tools of Engagement" reflects two different aspects of computing within Christian higher education:
- Extending our natural, God-given capabilities using advanced technology just as the use of a simple lever extends our muscular capacity
- Providing effective offense and defense analogous to mounting a successful military campaign
CCCU technology conferences are large enough to provide a good variety of sessions, but small enough that participants get to know each other and interact regarding common problems and opportunities.
Plan now to join us for the 2006 conference!
Registration closes on Monday, May 22, at noon EDT.
Conference Theme
The conference will feature a combination of plenary sessions, panel discussions, breakouts, and hands-on workshops addressing issues of common interest to technology leaders:
- Business intelligence (data warehousing, reporting, analysis)
- Cooperative projects for CCCU institutions
- Disaster recovery/business continuity

Our discussions will be conducted with a goal of improving the effectiveness of information services departments in accomplishing the divine mission of Christian higher education.
