Today’s workshop was requested to provide an update and explanation of the Hillsborough County Public Schools process for Agreements for Technical Services.  The discussion will include identifying a need, the Statement of Work (SOW), Selection Process, Funding, Training, and the Data Collection/Evaluation Process. 

The Superintendent, Staff, and the Contract Management Committee (identified in attachment) would like to propose the following definition for our use:  Agreements for Technical Services should be utilized for educational, professional, technical, artistic, and personnel services when the services are exempt from the bidding process.   These agreements may be used for the following: academic or educational consultants, tutors, mentors, technical assistance providers, trainers, academic assessment providers, test administrators, motivational speakers, lecturers, educational workshop providers, and creators of tests and/or curriculum.  (This list is not inclusive.)
