Abstract
Presentation at the May 2006 ECAR Academy in Dedham, Massachusetts. "NERCOMP Presents: ECAR Academy" was developed jointly by NERCOMP and ECAR to develop the next generation of current and emerging leaders and further the IT profession by promoting and fostering a culture of evidence. Participants examined the most pressing issues facing higher education/IT today from a data-driven point of view; participated in a rigorous and highly interactive curriculum led by ECAR investigators (fellows); learned how to interpret and use information strategically to inform leadership decisions and processes; and joined an ongoing, supportive peer network.
