SUMMARY:School Visit: Tour of Del Valle ISD’s CTE Academy and Center
DESCRIPTION:Del Valle ISD (DVISD) was an early adopter of The State of Texas’ reorganization of CTE in Texas. Although DVISD had numerous CTE class offerings\, the programming lacked the “coherent sequencing” needed to ensure multiple successful outcomes for students by graduation. DVISD has one comprehensive high school with an enrollment of 3400 students\, with 68% enrolled in one of the 23 CTE four-year programs of study. All of the programs have college credit and industry-based-certification opportunities. Each program of study was developed by committees composed of industry leaders\, higher education partners\, relevant vendors\, curriculum teams\, teachers\, architecture and engineering firms\, and community members. The uniqueness of the Del Valle ISD CTE department\, is the sheer scope of the facilities and of the curricula existing within one high school facility. \nSite Visit Schedule: \n8:00 am Depart from Austin Marriott Downtown Lobby 304 East Cesar Chavez Street\, Austin\, TX 78701 \n8:30 am Arrive at Del Valle ISD’s CTE Academy and Center 5201 Ross Rd\, Del Valle\, TX 78617 \n8:30 Welcome remarks from Career and Technology  and  DV Technology \n9:00 Tour – Career and Technology Innovation Space \n11:00 Gather in Learning Commons for questions and answers and closing comments  \n11:30 Board bus for box lunches and transfer to the airport and back to the hotel. \n11:45-12:00 Arrive at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport to drop off travelers \n12:30 Return to Hotel \nThis conference-related event requires pre-registration. The event registration fee includes transportation and box lunch. \nLimited spots are available\, so register for the conference here(opens in new tab) and sign up early for this special event!

SUMMARY:Data Backup & Recovery Strategies: Protecting Your Data in Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace
DESCRIPTION:Note: All Event Times are ET \nAbstract: \nMany Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace users assume that their data is automatically protected. However\, major SaaS providers largely place the responsibility for securing data in the hands of the user. As schools face an ever-increasing risk of data loss from numerous sources — accidents\, natural disasters\, malicious cyberattacks — how do you ensure that your cloud data is safe? \nThis session will examine real-life data storage and backup challenges from other educational institutions. We’ll explore a variety of robust solutions to secure your school’s data and enhance governance and security — while saving IT resources. Don’t miss this learning opportunity to effectively safeguard your VMs\, cloud data\, and on-premises systems. \nLearning Objectives: \n– Understand the policies for shared responsibility and why it’s important to back up data in cloud services. \n– Explore common challenges of backup and recovery\, and compare different strategies for recovering and storing data in VMs\, cloud data\, and on-premises systems. \n– Learn practical retention and backup strategies for data in Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. \nSpeaker: James Cissell | Technical Account Manager | Synology
