2022 Survey of Campus Chief Technology/Information Officers

Digital transformation, technology adoption, and talent retention: What happens when IT leaders are part of the president's cabinet?

In a survey of chief information and technology officers, Inside Higher Ed found a correlation between successful technology adoption, digital transformation initiatives, and IT staff retention and institutions that treat the technology unit on their campus as a strategic partner instead of a utility.

Below is a brief snapshot of some of the survey's findings.

• Roughly two-thirds of CIOs believe that their institution has not set specific digital transformation goals.
• More than half of CIOs agree that senior administrators treat the central technology unit more like a utility than a strategic partner.
• Better salaries and more flexible remote work policies at other organizations are among the top reasons institutions are struggling to retain or hire technology employees.
