New River is rapidly building the technological infrastructure that is needed to create an effective teaching and learning environment. With only a small staff, New River has already accomplished a great deal and there are many projects still under way. Many of the links on this page will take you to services provided by the New River Information Technology staff. Visit our New River Online site to learn more about us, the projects that we are involved in, our services, and the non-credit workshops that we offer for faculty and staff. We also participate in the new student and new employee orientation training sessions where we provide information about the technology services available to students and employees at New River.
