About CIT
Established in 1992, the Conference on Instruction & Technology (CIT) is the State University of New York's (SUNY's) largest and most prominent event on instructional technology in education, providing a forum for faculty, instructional support professionals, and policymakers to present, discuss, and explore innovative avenues for integrating technology into the teaching and learning environment. CIT, now in its 28th year, is held annually on a SUNY campus. The on-campus environment creates an informal atmosphere of sharing and networking among colleagues. The resulting camaraderie promotes a collaborative environment within and across disciplines for faculty from all campus types. CIT has drawn between 350 to 500 attendees, all of whom are actively involved in researching, developing, promoting, and incorporating technology in education.
