During the interconnectivity orientation held at the WVSU Institute of Information and Communication Technology last December 7, 2012, FITS- Information System FITS-participants were briefed on how to set-up the internet connection in their respective FITS centers. They were likewise oriented on how to use and maintain their FITS Information System (FITS-IS) account.
The FITS-IS system as an ICT tool in R&D seeks to organize data available on technologies whether from local, regional and other sources. It also seeks to provide an up-to-date inventory of agriculture-related publications and video materials that are available to FITS clients. The system is composed of six major databases namely: (1) technology, (2) experts profile, (3) farmers profile, (4) contact firms, (5) publication, (6) technology video materials.
