IT Staff Convention - Spring 2016

The 11th annual Spring IT Staff Convention will be held on Friday, May 20th! The semiannual IT Staff Convention provides a phenomenal opportunity for networking, learning from peers in IT at Penn, seeing what other groups at Penn are doing with IT, and creating connections that last far beyond the convention itself. We have content for everyone involved with IT - local support providers, sysadmins, developers, information security gurus, social media mavens, data analysts, new hires, and seasoned staff.

This spring's convention will once again feature our traditional convention format with 17 sessions covering the breadth of things we are doing in IT at Penn, covering topics that include:

• Information Security
• Big Data
• Classroom & Learning Technologies
• Enterprise Systems and Projects Overviews
• Novel Uses of Technology on Campus
• etc

We'll have a mix of open-ended, moderated discussion sessions, panel discussions, and more formal presentations (with Q&A), as well as our vendor fair, and “Hack-a-thon” partner event. The convention will run for most of the day: lunch will be served and a reception will wrap up the day's activities.

Be sure to tweet about the convention leading up to, and during, the big event, using the hashtag #PennITSC!  See you there!
