Commercial databases

Carl Seifert posted on February 6, 2007 - 2:43pm 1 comment

In our conference call I agreed to provide information about what commercial database my organization decided to go with. Although, I'm not sure exactly who asked for it. So whoever you are...here it is.

Social Solutions is the name of the company. They specialize in social service organizations big and small. They have clients that are 5 employees and hundreds, from Girl Scouts of America to Computer CORE (5 employees). The database software is called ETO (Efforts to Outcomes) and is built around the idea of tracking successes and clients.

Shoot me an email if you have any other questions. ceseifert@gmail.com

Later!

Does anyone know if there will be an annual CTCNET conference this year? I checked out their website and found two contradictory pieces of information. One here that says there will be no conference due to strategic planning and one here that claims there is one and it shall be in LA in June/July. Talk about contradictory. …read more

New Media on the radio

For all of you interested in new media (web 2.0 stuff), a local npr radio show just did a segment entitled 21st century media. For those of you who went to this past summer's CTCNet Conference it is the show of the closing speaker ( Kojo Nnamdi). He is a brilliant host and I enjoyed listening to it. It is available for streaming download and podcast here.

Adult Computer Literacy Curriculum

Hey guys, Does anyone work with adult computer literacy programs? I was hoping to peek at how others covered the topic of saving files.  Our students seem to not get 'save as' and 'send to.'  I'd love to see how other programs approach this topic, so we can adapt our curriculum.  I love best practices :). If you know of a program, somebody who runs a program or have a link to a program, then I would be very appreciative. Thanks!  Carls
