IT Executive Forum
Each fall the ITRI hosts the IT Executive Forum. This is a unique experience for students to interact and network with top executives in the field of information technology from companies like Walmart, JB Hunt, Tyson, Acxiom, FedEx, ConocoPhillips, and many more.
What to Expect
Over 300 high school students attended last year and asked questions like, "What classes should I take?" "Should I become certified in general office software?" Each panelist took time to explain the types of jobs available in the information technology field and the skill set needed to attain those jobs.
The college students appreciated the chance to discuss specific career opportunities with executives in the industry and garner an understanding of the practical knowledge required to be successful in the field of information technology.
