Description
Adding Community Source to your IT strategy can increase the benefit a development project brings to your institution. The Community Source Initiative provides a means for features you develop to become supported functionality in a SunGard Higher Education product baseline and for collaborating on development projects with other institutions. Your IT operation can reduce the technical debt and project costs associated with customizations by leveraging the power of SunGard and the entire community. Panelists will discuss their institutions involvement in the Community Source Initiative, the use of Community Source in their IT strategy and the benefits their institution has realized from collaboration and participation.
