The IT team’s responsibilities include identifying the technology needs for GLOBE and discovering ways to implement these technologies within the organization to establish efficient communications. We handle website content maintenance, online social networks, and recommendations to assist field partners in communicating with the GLOBE class. With the assistance of fellow task teams, the IT team is critical in developing strategies to make the GLOBE program operate day to day outside of the classroom. 

Semester Tasks

  • Perform technology assessments for the class and field partners, delivering needs as necessary.
  • Assist in preparing, revising, and maintaining content for the GLOBE website to deliver information, accept donations, and list borrower profiles.
  • Liaison with task teams to create communication strategies that effectively reach our field partners, donors, borrowers, prospective GLOBE students, and the university community.
  • Maintain social networking accounts (Youtube, Twitter, Facebook) to provide updated GLOBE activities
