Why
companies are choosing CTO Assist
Do
you require IT assistance, but cannot justify hiring a full time engineer?
Would assistance one or two days a week from a PC Technician or Network Administrator help you complete a project? Would you benefit from access to
a Senior Network Engineer without hiring a full time resource?
CTO Assist provides businesses with access to technology resources with
the expertise and skill sets you require for as little as three months
or as long as you require.
A need for short or long-term technical resources with the qualifications
to suit ever changing technological needs has been a continuing problem
for many businesses. Additionally, projects such as OS or application
upgrades typically are short term and do not warrant hiring full time
technical support.
CPR works with you to perform a needs analysis and assigns dedicated onsite
technical support personnel with the expertise to meet your specific needs.
The engineers are employees of CPR; they have been trained, screened and
have worked in a variety of technology environments. Engineers are assigned
to your company specific day(s) a week, so you can realize the full benefits
of CTO Assist.
With CTO Assist, you save up to 50% compared to standard billing rates.

In addition, CPR has other solutions to meet your technical staffing needs. Technology Advantage® provides small and medium sized business Fortune 500 Level IT support for an affordable monthly rate. This includes help desk support, remote monitoring and maintenance, and onsite support. Or if you
are looking to hire top IT talent, CPR's IT Staffing and Direct Placement Services can help. We can help you find qualified candidates for temporary or project based needs, temp-to-hire, or direct placement. Click here or call your Account Manager for more details.

Recent Upgrades at the CPR Learning Center
The CPR Learning Center is excited to announce that we recently installed new equipment in our training rooms. The old CRT monitors have now been replaced with 19" flat screen LCD monitors. Nine new HP XW4600 workstations have been installed in our Practice Tee. In addition our heating and cooling system has been modified to make the classroom environment more comfortable for our students. Additional upgrades will continue into 2009.
