More about the Technical Assistance Team
The team is composed of individuals, working remotely across California, that support LEA’s in the state of California to ensure timely and accurate transcript data is processed in CaliforniaColleges.edu.
The team does NOT include data scientists, developers or programmers. We work closely with the Director of Integrations and the Director of Infrastructure and Analytics to resolve bugs or anomalies when processing transcript files. In addition we work within a team that focuses on providing technical assistance to all LEA’s using transcript-informed functionality on CaliforniaColleges.edu with respect to resolving Course Management Portal (CMP) discrepancies and improving transcript transcription processes.
We are keen for you to bring experience that you can impart to the rest of us, but you also have to be interested to improve in many other skills and low ego enough to always take initiative to learn more. This role reports to the Director of Data Services.
