Technology Tools

Computer Applications.  University of Missouri Extension has supplied each specialist with a desktop computer equipped with software to enhance the delivery of high quality programs.  It is your responsibility to make the most effective use of these tools in designing and implementing your programs.

 Extension Technology and Computer Services (ETCS), located on the UMC Campus, is available to assist you with technology-related questions.  They have prepared excellent tutorials on EXCEL, Word, PowerPoint, Windows support and updates, and managing your e-mail through Outlook.  Visit the “Tips in Less than a Minute” on the ETCS Help page to improve your knowledge and skills with your computer software.

As an MU Extension regional specialist, you will receive updates from ETCS to keep you current with software available, virus concerns, etc.

ETCS also provides face-to-face training for MU Extension employees on the various computer software programs that we use.  If you feel you need training, consult with your Regional Director.  In addition, ETCS and Netg offer web-based training to support your professional development.  Current topics range from Business Writing: Creating Effective Proposals, to Facilitation, to Time Management.

Telecommunications Centers.  The regional Telecenter Network (TCRC) is also available to assist you in providing efficient, up-to-date programs utilizing the     latest in technology.  

Visit the Telecenter page to learn more about this resource and/or visit the support staff at your regional TCRC to learn what services the TCRC provides.
