Information Technology Standards Committee

Desktop computers and the campus information technology infrastructure have become essential tools for faculty, staff, and students at Cerritos College. As a result of the continuing growth of desktop computing and the demand for support services, there has been a significant impact on resources. To improve efficiency and focus our central support efforts, we have implemented the following standards. We strongly believe this will help contribute to a responsive, dependable, and supportable computing environment.

Cerritos College hardware and software standards have been established under the guidance of the Information Technology Standards Committee. The information technology department will also work with any individual areas if the established standards are an inappropriate fit. Please contact Patrick O'Donnell x2171 or Javier Banuelos x2167 for customized assistance. The most common upgrade recommendations include additional memory, faster CPU's,  larger hard drives, and/or larger monitors which are valuable for some specific types of applications.
