ITS & You: Tech Services Overview Sessions

This session introduces services and resources provided by Information Technology Services (ITS) to all Middlebury employees, including: email, file storage, account security, online learning, and how to obtain computing help. Although geared toward new/recent hires, everyone is welcome to attend – you might surprise yourself with an “aha” moment or two. The workshop format will be a presentation with questions entertained along the way, followed by an optional half hour for assistance with more user-specific questions.

We are now partnering with Human Resources to coordinate our sessions with their bi-monthly new employee orientations. Here is our current schedule:
