UNC CAUSE 2011

31.Oct.2011 - 04.Nov.2011
Twin City Quarters - Benton Convention Center

I attended 52 people said they attended. Show »

UNC CAUSE is a conference aimed at all information technology and related staff of the 17 campuses of the University of North Carolina system.

Our theme for this year's conference is Cause 4 Cause. We have chosen this as a way to give back to a worthwhile cause. After some discussion, we decided to give to the Robyn Render scholarship fund. In her tenure as the UNC-GA CIO, Robyn focused on professional development for IT managers and administrators with emphasis on leadership and career enhancement. She was a strong advocate for the UNC Cause conference.

Over all the conference was good.

07.Nov.2011 at 15:36 by breiner (8 comments) (Feedback)

Overall, a very valuable conference, superbly organized... and the sponsoring vendors treated attendees extremely graciously!

One comment regarding the session schedule... it would be nice to have drinks (coffee, sodas, water bottles) available throughout the mornings and afternoons rather than only during the "breaks"... seems unnecessary to have the restriction.

Participant schedules in/on the name tag pendants is a great idea, but would have liked the ability to grab .ics appointment files for the sessions I planned to attend (the mobile app didn't work for my ancient Blackberry :-).

One other suggestion for future conferences... build a BOF list in the web site, and allow people to "sign-up," if informally, for those... so the organizers have some idea as to magnitude of interest, and potential attendees can see what may be offered far enough in advance to schedule appropriately and possibly even to communicate with others in advance, as well.

Desktop Management
Traditional desktop management tasks include installing and maintaining hardware and software, spam filtering, and administering user permissions. In recent years, however, security-related tasks have become an increasingly large part of desktop management. As a result, an increasingly large proportion of administrative resources have been devoted to security-related tasks, such as patch management, fighting viruses and spyware, and controlling greynet applications. What innovative ways is your organization dealing with desktop management?
