The New Jersey chapter of the League of Professional System Administrators, an organization dedicated to facilitating information exchange pertaining to the field of system administration, announced today that it is launching the Professional IT Community Conference, or PICC, for IT administrators. The conference will be held Friday, May 7th through Saturday, May 8th at the Hyatt Regency in New Brunswick.
The Professional IT Community Conference is a gathering of people from the diverse IT community in New Jersey to learn, share ideas, and network. The conference will include invited speakers and keynotes, top-notch training sessions that are relevant, useful, and recession-friendly, as well as an “unconference”
LOPSA-NJ organizer and PICC Chairman William Bilancio said, “This conference will be the area's premier community-organized system administration event, and we're looking forward to hosting IT administrators, regardless of their operating systems or infrastructure complexity.”
New Jersey-local and internationally recognized author and speaker Thomas A. Limoncelli remarked, “I've benefited greatly from other regional and national conferences like this. People come for the excellent technical training but the benefits of networking last forever. I'm excited about seeing the New Jersey technical IT community coming together. This conference has particular benefits for people that will be connecting to the technical community for the first time.”
"Non-profit, community driven conferences are your best IT training value", said Pamela Howell, conference organizer and CEO of New Jersey-based Esoteric Resources. "There's nothing quite like the networking opportunities at an in-person conference. The sense of community one has, of being in a place where you're among your peers, people who understand you - your work issues and how they can affect your everyday life - it's irreplaceable. That's why we wanted to bring a more affordable conference experience to the local level, so that everyone can participate."
LOPSA-NJ and the Professional IT Community Conference are dedicated to fostering our local expert community and strengthening tomorrow's computing infrastructure.
