EDUCAUSE 2007 Current Issues Report Spotlights Top-Ten Campus IT Challenges

Created by Colleen Luckett (EDUCAUSE) on May 4, 2007

Which IT issues have the greatest strategic importance to higher education institutions today and which ones are likely to be important in the future? Find answers to these questions and learn about other current trends in the 2007 EDUCAUSE Current IT Issues Survey report, published in the current issue of EDUCAUSE Quarterly.

The 2007 survey gathered responses from 591 primary representatives (typcially CIOs) of EDUCAUSE member institutions, representing public and private and associate- through doctorate-granting institutions of all sizes.

Among this year's key findings:

Funding IT re-emerges as a top challenge.
Security and identity/access management split as separate issues.
Course/learning management systems move into the top ten for the first time.
Among issues expected to be more significant in the future, portals drop in rank from fifth to ninth.

The report is accompanied by a collection of helpful resources on the top issues.
