Date: Thursday, November 20, 2014 
Time: 8:00 - 10:30 AM
Cost: Complimentary 
Credits: 3 CPEs/CEUs

Interoperability is at the heart of many e-government and Gov 2.0 initiatives and is imperative for information sharing among government agencies. Agencies are looking for ways to modernize legacy information technology systems for budgetary savings and to build systems to respond quickly to citizen demands for online services.

As with their private sector counterparts, IT professionals within the government need to bridge the gap between disparate enterprise applications, modernize legacy systems, and efficiently develop new capabilities through the use of service-oriented-architecture middleware.

This educational briefing will award 3 CPE credits from The George Washington University Center for Excellence in Public Leadership.

Join government peers to explore innovative strategies and technologies your agency can implement now to deliver better results and create value for the citizen through streamlining IT.
