Conference registration fees fund the TSUG organization. The organization
is independent and does not receive financial support from any vendor.
The organization is administered by an Executive Committee consisting of
a president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, web master,
conference coordinator and 24 Steering Committee members (7 student
users, 5 finance users, 6 human resources users, 4 technology department
personnel, 1 nurse, and 1 food service user). The Steering Committee
works directly with the officers in scheduling and planning the
conference.
The Steering Committees, along with Skyward, will maintain a list of
members, software, and equipment that districts use. This will provide
users with contacts in other school districts. The Steering Committee
will work directly with Skyward staff on all suggested
enhancements/software requests. The organization will provide the
combined support of all members to communicate to providers the problems
and expectations of the users. Members will be given an opportunity to
meet with providers at the conferences and discuss ideas for new
software and related products. The organization will host a conference
once each year. These annual conferences will provide opportunities for
users to become acquainted with other members with similar
responsibilities, problems, ideas, etc. TSUG encourages the exchange of
information for better utilization of equipment and software.
