If your boss won’t send you to Usenix/LISA because it is too expensive…
The League of Professional System Administrators (LOPSA) now offers
an accelerated-learning-style conference at a lower cost to
participants. This unique two-day program was specifically designed to
reach system administrators, particularly those who work at smaller and
mid-sized organizations. The compression of the time spent in classes
means attendees will only be out of the office for two to three days
but will have an opportunity to take four classes, thereby lowering
hotel and travel costs, as well as the direct impact on business needs.
Sysadmin Days will be held on August 6-7 at the Clarion Hotel and
Conference Center, Cherry Hill, NJ. The workshop will feature 12
industry experts who will teach 16 half-day sessions on a variety of
topics, most with an emphasis on practical tools and face-to-face
advice from other professionals in the field.
Registration fees are under $1,000 per participant, and LOPSA offers
discounts for members, students and educational institutions. LOPSA
believes the net effect of this unique program will be to provide
system administrators with more training and tools to do their jobs.
“LOPSA wants to reach as many system administrators as we can
because that’s what LOPSA is about,” David Parter, a LOPSA board of
directors member, said. “Our goal is to serve the profession and to
help our members grow in their careers.”
“LOPSA knows that the informed system administrator can raise issues
about critical business needs and better serve customers,” Parter said.
“This training is focused on imparting practical and valuable
knowledge.”
