Cayman Brac and Little Cayman get their own ICT Systems Administrator!

An essential part of the education transformation process has been the strengthening of the ICT systems in schools and the technical support for teachers in ensuring that all systems and equipment function as designed. The schools on the smaller islands of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman, have for the first time, now got their own ICT Systems Administrator to keep their systems 'live'.

After working in Grand Cayman nine years ago, MaryAnn Keeler returned to the Cayman Islands last December to fill the capacity of Systems Administrator for all the schools in the Sister Islands. She has over 15 years experience as a computer trainer and technician in Canadian businesses and organizations and is a welcome addition to the Ministry of Education ICT Team of four other Systems Administrators under the direction of ICT Manager; Steven Durksen.

MaryAnn supports the Little Cayman Education Service, West End Primary School, Creek and Spot Bay Primary Schools and Cayman Brac High School. She will also be taking a leadership role in the management of the deployment of the exciting new online portal ‘Studywiz’ which will be launched soon.

MaryAnn brings not only skills as a technician but also as a trainer which is key as she also assists in training teachers to use ICT effectively in the classroom and integrate ICT across all subject areas in the curriculum.

Hailing from British Columbia in Canada, MaryAnn found returning to the Cayman Islands was not a difficult decision for her as just loves on this "beautiful island". She is very active in the community and volunteers her services with the Cayman Islands Humane Society. She is also a member of the Brac Business Professional Women’s club.
