Information technology management

Information technology management is a collection of different tools and processes that work together to make sure that computers and technology are working correctly. Just like you need to keep your toys and playroom in good order so that you can play with them whenever you want, companies need to keep their technology in check so they can use it to do their job.

The people who manage information technology, called IT managers, do lots of different things to make sure that a company's computers and technology are working properly. They make sure that computers are protected from viruses, that software updates are installing correctly, and that networks are running smoothly.

IT managers also help to plan and decide which technology will work best for the company, and make sure that everyone knows how to use it correctly. They might train employees on new software or set up new computer systems in a company.

If something goes wrong with a computer or a network, IT managers are also responsible for fixing it. They might have to troubleshoot and diagnose the problem, and then figure out how to fix it. They might have to take apart the computer or install new software to solve the problem.

Overall, IT managers are like the caretakers of technology—they make sure that everything is working correctly so that the people who use it can get their work done.
