Technology assessments provide an unbiased review of existing technology
and its use, and form the basis for a plan to improve a nonprofit
organization's use of computers, communication devices and media
technologies.
Through ENTECH, a project housed at UW - Milwaukee's Center for
Urban Initiatives and Research, a team of students from the University
of Wisconsin - Milwaukee conducts assessments of nonprofit organizations.
After
a visit of 2-4 hours onsite, a detailed report is then written,
outlining specific recommendations relating to planning, policies,
hardware, software, networking, and implementation strategies for
each participating nonprofit. You can click here
to see a glossary of the technical terms used in the report.

in Technology at (414) 229-2913.
"The
report gave us a solid foundation on which to develop the plan,
it also helped us think about technology for the organization in general,
not just the programs."

"I
would highly recommend this process for any other non-profit organization,
even those with IT staff."
