About IT4YOU
About the IT4YOU Project
The IT4You project originated in 2015 from a need to replace CKC’s outdated, 30-year-old computer system that manages all membership, registration and event information. The project is destined to re-define and improve the online member experience by making it faster and easier to access personalized and pertinent information and online applications.
