Read about recent events, essential information and the latest community news.

Welcome to Information Executive (IE), articles by and for AITP Members! See the latest news from the Association, Regions, and Chapters. Read interesting feature articles of interest to all IT Professionals and Students.

Below are individual articles. We will periodically bundle links to recent articles and send them to members as an issue of Information Executive.

Past Issues of Information Executive can be found at:  http://www.aitp.org/?page=PastIssuesInfoExec. This page can be found via the AITP In the News link in the left navigation rail.

Each section below contains the latest 5 articles for each IE section (association, chapters, regions, features, etc.) There is a "More” link at the end of each section to take you to a page with all articles for that section. There is also a drop down box at the top of the news page where you can select a section.

Do you want to be notified immediately of new IE articles, instead of waiting for an IE issue to be emailed to you? The News pages are RSS enabled. Set up your RSS feed today.

Do you like a particular article? Have questions? Please add a comment. See the "add comment” link at the end of each article.

Do you have new, exciting information to tell your fellow AITP members – either about the Information Technology you work with, or about how your chapter or region achieved success? We encourage you to submit an article to IEeditor@aitp.org. See the "Submit IE” page (http://www.aitp.org/?page=SubmitIE) for details and rules.
