IST Employees Attend GMIS Conference

Last week, four of our teammates traveled to Reno, Nevada for professional development at the Government Management Information Sciences (GMIS) Conference. GMIS is the largest IT government organization in the United States.

Tammy Dixon, Dwayne Campbell and Gwen Simmons were accepted into the inaugural National Certified Governmental Chief Information Officers program. The CGCIO Certification Program is a twelve-month course that lays the foundation for assessing and addressing some of the most critical issues facing IT leadership in the public sector. The purpose of this program is to equip leaders with the requisite tools to manage and improve their organizational technology assets.

IST Director Jerry Pinkard also attended the GMIS conference. He served on the GMIS board for six years and was the president of the board in 2004.
