🚀 Exciting day at SUNY Broome’s SPARK Career Exploration Fair on Wednesday! 🎉
Our #SouthCentralRIC Field Service Technicians were there, showcasing the world of #tech and #fieldservices to over 1,000 eighth-grade students from across the Southern Tier.
It was an incredible opportunity to give these #futureprofessionals a first-hand look at the diverse #careerpaths in #healthcare, #STEM, #trades, #warehousing, #business, and #humanities. We loved SPARKing #curiosity and #inspiring the #nextgeneration to explore their passions!
Shoutout to everyone who made the event a success and to the students who were eager to learn about the many career possibilities ahead. 🌟 #ContinuousLearning #Collaboration #CaringCommunity #Character #CareerExploration #FutureTechs #SPARKFair
🚀 Exciting Career Conversations with Future Leaders! 🚀
Recently, members of our MITS teams had the amazing opportunity to travel to @DCMOBOCES and meet with their talented #CTE (Career & Technical Education) high school students. 🎓
We were thrilled to speak with these bright young minds about the wide range of #TechCareers within the #SouthCentralRIC and the #tech-driven #careerpaths that are shaping the future. From #ITsupport to #softwaresupport, and everything in between, the #possibilities are endless! 🌟
Thank you to DCMO BOCES for welcoming us and to the students for their enthusiasm and curiosity. We can’t wait to see where their careers take them — maybe even with us! 💼💻 #CareerExploration #FutureLeaders #BuildingTheFuture

Alex (SCRIC), Kyle (PLIC), and Binghamton High School principal Kevin presented a session at NYSCATE, showcasing the implementation journey of their Generative AI Pilot Program. This program aims to teach high school students how to use Generative AI safely and ethically within an academic setting.
The session covered the development of teachers' expertise in Generative AI, the creation of AI policy, the decision-making process for selecting an AI platform, and the strategic structure of the Pilot Program to ensure its success. Additionally, they shared real examples of how students are using generative AI in their classroom experiences, along with insights from participating teachers and students.
💡 The South Central RIC Managed Technology Service empowers districts with strategic technology leadership that bridges the gap between districts and BOCES by providing seamless coordination, leadership at the administrative level, and expert policy advisement. We value partnering together to achieve your district’s goals! 🌟 https://core-docs.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/documents/asset/uploaded_file/3339/SCRIC/3905593/Managed_Technology_Service.pdf
We believe employees thrive when they are connected to and supported by their colleagues. Our managed services coordinators do this by meeting regularly to share ideas, information and knowledge, learn how to build a strong team, ask for help or advice, encourage one another, develop skills, practice security scenarios, and plan for the future. Their last meeting featured a unique team-building activity to learn how to accomplish a common goal as a team with a given set of resources.
✨ In the Summer of 2024, our Solutions & Operations team deployed 120 new switches which involved working in 35 separate wiring closets throughout our districts! 💻 This significant upgrade from 10-year-old switches empowers our districts to deploy and take full advantage of the latest wireless and security technologies—now and in the future. 🌐
This year's Leadership and Innovation Showcase was a huge success. Thank you to the many SCRIC staff members who put in countless hours of energy, time and creativity, to NYSCATE for the partnership and support, to B&W for providing our main stage area and to the Doubletree for hosting the event. #SouthCentralRIC #LIS2024 #EdTech #ContinuousLearning #CustomerFocused #SchoolSupport
