I would like a copy of your excel template for your communications plan. I will be using it for a Health Information Technology project. Thank you.
Thanks for the request. I sent you the template via email. Leo
Hi Leo,
We’re working on an IT Control Framework here in the Post Secondary Sector in Alberta. One of the current projects delivering controls, based on Cobit 4.1, is EA. Can you tell me if a taxonomy has been developed for post secondary? I have more details on the requirements if that helps.
Thanks!
Jim
Jim, there is no formal taxonomy that I know of for EA in Higher Education. I am very interested in what you are working on. Perhaps we can setup a Skype call? Leo
