eBOARDsolutions - 8 Great Reasons

Why choose eBOARD?  Eight Great Reasons!


You've been thinking about going paperless with your board. Board meeting packets are expensive to produce and cumbersome to sort through to find what you need when you need it. You've looked at several eGovernance solutions. So which one should you choose?

Here are eight great reasons to choose eBOARD:

eBOARD goes beyond paperless meetings. eBOARD is more than just a paperless board meeting solution. It is a suite of six integrated web-based governance modules. Effective governance requires strategic planning, sound policy, effective meetings, communications and evaluations. eBOARD can help you with all of these. Subscribe to the ones you want today and easily add others when you're ready. Why choose a tool that will limit your opportunity to grow?

eBOARD goes beyond the board. If paperless meetings would be good for your board, why would you NOT do it throughout the entire organization? Why limit your district to just that one type of meeting when eBOARD can help you manage an unlimited set of meeting types whether internal or public. Imagine the paper costs this would save, not to mention the time saved.

eBOARD ensures alignment to goals. eBOARD allows preparers of an agenda item to select which goal(s) from your strategic plan relates to a particular agenda item. eBOARD's exclusive "Goals Scorecard" lets everyone know the focus of the meeting.

 

Exclusive Strategic Plan management. ONLY eBOARD offers a web-based module to help districts organize, manage and monitor all of their strategic and school improvement plans. We believe that the focus of the governance model should be on your plan and everything else should align back to the plan. Don't you agree? With eBOARD your plan can easily be aligned to both meetings and policies.

 

Exclusive Evaluation Module. ONLY eBOARD offers a web-based module to help districts organize and manage leadership level evaluations. These evaluations can be aligned to your strategic plan, meeting agendas and policies. Again, we are very focused on aligning the work of your leadership team.

 

Experience in Governance. eBOARDsolutions was created by the Georgia School Boards Association and we KNOW about effective governance. We live it and breath it. eBOARD was developed to meet the needs expressed by our members and now through eBOARDsolutions, eBOARD is available to organizations in other states.

 

Exclusive! Apple-approved iPad app. eBOARD is the only web-based meeting product for education that has an Apple-approved iPad app available on the Apple app store. We understand that not all board members are technically savvy so we created an easy-to-navigate app that is a free download for board members (or anyone else for that matter!) Logged in users can even take notes right on the iPad prior or during the meeting. It's not just iPad "compatible." It's a TRUE app!

 

Exclusive integrated video-rich help system. As the use of eBOARD has expanded from a few district-level people to leadership throughout the entire district, we have built a comprehensive 24/7 interactive and integrated video-rich help system to put valuable resources at your users’ fingertips. Whether it is talking or chatting with a member of our team, watching training videos or accessing valuable best practice information, the resources you need are there WHEN you need it.

 

If your district is considering using web-based governance tools, make sure YOUR solution is the right one.
