      Historique

      The School Board Services Unit was created in 1984, assuming responsibility for the development and management of the Educational Computing Network of Ontario (ECNO) and the provision of computer-based management services to the school boards, functions formerly performed by the disbanded Management Information Systems Branch.

      The School Board Services Unit was part of the Education Technology Development Division and was composed of the following sections: Marketing and Planning, Systems Services, General Administration (renamed General Administration Services in 1986 and General Administrative Systems Group in 1987), Integrated Payroll Personnel Systems, Micro VAX Application, Student Administration System, VAX Technical Support, and Information Resource Management. A Northern Computers Services Section was added in 1985.

      In 1987, the School Board Services Unit was transferred to the Learning Services Division and two groups were added: School Consumer Support and Board Consumer Support. In 1988, the School Consumer Support Group and the Student Administration Section were merged into a new School Product Support Section, and two new sections were added: Board Product Support and Oracle Technical Support Group.

      In 1989, the School Board Services Unit was transferred to the Administration Division (renamed Finance and Administration Division in 1992). In 1990, the School Board Services Unit was re-organized into the following sections: Marketing and Planning, School Products, Board Products, Integrated Payroll Products, Board Administration Projects, Technical Products, SSBU VMS Products Group, ECNO VMS Products Group, and Oracle Products Group.

      In 1992, the School Board Services Unit was renamed School Board Information Technology Branch.
