HRIS - UC Berkeley Extension

I cannot believe that we are one class away from being done with the HRIS. I have to say that it is bitter sweet. Although I look forward to not driving nearly two hours to get to class on time, I will miss the insightful and fascinating lectures. This class makes me feel so...cutting edge. As if I'm on top of the technology as it relates to business and HR. I don't consider myself a technological savvy person, but the fact that I am twitting, blogging and doing my own research for advances in technology says a lot for what this course has taught me.

I was thinking the other day, "How will I know how to stay up to date when this class is over?" I am planning on keeping my Twitter account and keeping it as a professional tool to keep me informed. I am hoping that Jun will also keep using Twitter until the next new and improved social networking, web 2.0, website is created. Will that be enough though? In my office, I feel like I am leading the technological revolution, but again I reiterate I am not a technologically savvy person. I am worried, but at the same time hopeful that I will be able to lead our office into the Web 2.0 world with success, having learned a lot in this class.

I have a feeling that I will be back in a few years to take this class again, when Web 3.0 emerges (if it ever does...). Who knows what new and exciting technologies will have been created by then.

Looking forward to the future of technology in HR.
