Kansas Association of School Boards Selects BoardDocs To Drive Statewide eGovernance Initiative

Aug. 25, 2011 - PRLog -- ATLANTA  — Emerald Data Solutions™, Inc., the eGovernance pioneer and developer of BoardDocs®, today announced a new partnership with the Kansas Association of School Boards (KASB), which represents 287 school districts and 41 cooperatives, service centers, community colleges and technical colleges throughout the state. The KASB provides district leaders with the training, information and services necessary to perform their governance roles at the highest level of excellence.

“KASB is dedicated to finding reliable, affordable ways for our member school districts to increase the efficiency of their operations. We believe paperless agenda solutions will save school districts in Kansas considerable resources in both time and money,” said John Heim, KASB executive director. “At the same time using BoardDocs will provide a new level of transparency in governance of our schools. Our partnership with BoardDocs is a way to increase board of education efficiency, accessibility and effectiveness in Kansas.”

BoardDocs has helped nearly 500 organizations in 41 states dramatically improve processes through their economical and flexible eAgenda technology that fully supports organizational governance and administrative needs. BoardDocs services are also proven to save many organizations tens of thousands of dollars annually, while users see a dramatic increase in their board’s effectiveness and in their administrative time-of-staff productivity.
