Missouri Higher Education Information Technology (MoHEIT)

As part of the MOREnet Consortium, higher education members are invited to the annual collaborative sessions of Missouri Higher Education Information Technology (MoHEIT) working group. The group meets annually each spring.

MoHEIT consists of CIOs and other decision makers from higher education institutions across the state featuring guest speakers and facilitating group discussion over a variety of topics such as challenges and opportunities, strategic direction, management of information technology systems, and technological aspects of products and services.
