Sarah’s primary role in Lasa’s Information Systems Team has been to develop the Circuit Rider movement and concept. Her work at Lasa has included working on the first Circuit Rider project working with small groups in the UK.  ”Bringing Circuit Riders together through seminars at a National level; and through the UKRiders list has been a success in terms of reducing the isolation felt by technologists in the Sector”.  She is currently project managing the Learning Programme.

Do we still see blank faces when we suggest that we couldn’t run our sector without technology? Is it because we are all fully aware that this is the case? or is it because we don’t think its true?
whatever the answer, technology is still under resourced, under acknowledged, under planned, under managed ……and NOT accepted as an INFRASTRUCTURE issue…..
I am often on my soap box about this – and would like to hear from those who perhaps have more of an insight into WHY we are still looked at so blankly…..am I missing the point?
Strategies for getting around these hurdles are tenfold, cajoling, threatening or hand holding – laying it bare…we aren’t liked much as technology=money=complications
I hope this programme will enable us to develop ideas and support so we can help our organisations get the best they can from what is available to them without feeling bamboozled.
