HFC’s Technology Investment Committee (TIC) is calling for Technology Investment Fund (TIF) proposals, which must be submitted by Friday, Feb. 19.

The purpose of the TIF proposals is to support projects that increase and/or improve student access to technology, including:

  • Computer-assisted instruction
  • Online learning hardware and software
  • Industrial computer and equipment upgrades
  • Costs for consultants and technical support (on a one-time basis)

Application process is easy

The application process for TIF proposals is not complicated. The criteria are:

1). The proposed technology must support students.
2). The proposed technology must be on your School’s Operational Plan
3). You must have a Strategic Planning Online (SPOL) number that must be included on the TIF application.

The SPOL number is required because the project must align with the goals of the College. The SPOL number is assigned by the dean of your School and approved by HFC Vice President of Academic Affairs Dr. Michael Nealon for placement on the overall strategic plan. If a faculty member does not have a SPOL number, they will not be able to apply for a TIF grant.

If you have satisfied the criteria, complete a TIF application. The application involves your project, research, and justification of the requested funds. Be sure to include a budget for the project.

Submit TIF proposals to Doris Toney at dptoney@hfcc.edu by Friday, Feb. 19.
