Emerging Opportunities
What We Do
The emerging opportunities committee works with Extension IT specialists on current issues related to the technology needs of extensions such as office equipment, educational and AV equipment, software and programs, and other technologies used in engaging the clientele we serve. They also serve as a liaison between field extension educators and Extension IT specialists and administration on items related to technology and other opportunities. They also work with the IEEA vice president to keep the IEEA website up-to-date.
Technology Resource List
Professionally produced videos and podcasts are a great way to engage our audiences. There are many great resources available for Extension Educators to use on campus. Many counties also have resources nearby.
