IT GRC programs develop a framework for the leadership, organization, and operation of an institution's IT programs. Using data from ECAR's 2014 study, we will discuss how higher education institutions are currently approaching IT GRC practices, the gaps between the perceived importance of specific risks and how they are being addressed, and the factors that impact institutional risk management maturity. This session will also introduce participants to EDUCAUSE's new IT GRC program and invite discussion on how the new program can help institutions address their most pressing IT GRC concerns.
OUTCOMES: Learn about the current landscape of IT GRC practices in higher education * Discover the factors that underlie institutional risk management maturity * Share tips, tactics, and resources needed to improve IT GRC in higher education
