A major strength of ECF is its ability to provide solutions and
services tailored to the specific needs of the organization. Thus,
in addition to the services specifically identified, examples of
other services ECF partners and associates can provide include regular
updates of the key issues, news, and outcomes that impact an organization;
comprehensive organizational review; or evaluation and assessment
for a specific area of the organization. ECF works closely with
organizational leaders to identify those services that best fit
the requirements of the organization.
In addition to offering its own expertise, ECF has worked closely
with several organizations that provide additional services. ECF
has no partnerships or allegiances with any of these organizations,
and therefore can serve as an "honest broker" to aim schools
at providers of other services they may need. Such services include
distance learning consulting, from introduction to advanced hosting;
establishment of student technology service organizations on campuses
to support and offload the IT staff; turnkey campus wireless networks
with no initial implementation charge; technical assistance on wireless
links to remote learning centers, buildings or other resources;
and consultants on the introduction of change and amelioration of
its negative effects.
The other organizations are referred to in the appropriate sections
of the ECF website, but are listed here for convenience:
