Join us on Zoom Oct 11 while special guest, Chris Lamb, explains the Enterprise Cloud Computing Program (ECCP) for Washington state's public agencies and municipalities. [9 to 10 AM PST]
The ECCP was created by WaTech to provide leadership, governance, guidance, and resources to accelerate the strategic adoption of cloud technologies across Washington state government.
The overall mission of the ECCP is to accelerate efforts to modernize and transform the state information technology services that Washingtonians require by embracing cloud technology. This is an integral part of WaTech's efforts to create a "connected government" where residents and visitors can access state government services more easily and directly.
During the scoping and assessment phase, an IT Staff Impact Analysis was conducted among state agencies that will be migrating resources to the cloud and offering cloud-based resources to consumers. Skill sets among existing IT staff were analyzed and gaps were assessed. Opportunities and recommendations for training were identified. Industries in WA that are planning cloud migrations will be interested to hear Chris Lamb speak about the ECCP strategy. Educators in Cloud and Cybersecurity will benefit from hearing about the skills that the ECCP recommends developing among IT staff.

During the session, CRP Director Vipul Kumar will provide a demo of CRPv3 and guide participants through the no-cost instructor registration process.
