COVID-19 has left colleges and universities scrambling to come up with alternative plans for the 2020 fall semester. Some are opting for 100% online learning while others are taking more of a hybrid approach with a combination of in person and online classes. While schools face an abundance of change this academic year, it’s not just the faculty and students that need to adapt but also the entire IT infrastructure for which the school is run.
For the past 15 years, there's been a shift in how people work, where they work from and how they connect to "work". Employees are no longer tethered to headquarters, their offices or tied to slower complicated VPN services. Additionally, the way people work and where they work from has changed.
