What's New At This Year's Conference

PresentIT	Traditionally SIGUCCS has offered two similar presentations in the same time slot, which often caused problems for people wanting to switch sessions during the presentation. This year we are trying something new, each presentation has a 45 minute slot so you attend only the sessions that you want to attend.
LeadIT	Leading and managing IT professionals is challenging, so we wanted to offer a track of topics that would be helpful to the new manager or aspiring IT leader. We have collected some experts to guide you through a facilitated discussion on various management and leadership topics, come and share your stories!
DiscussIT	BOFs or “birds of a feather” sessions are always popular so we wanted to offer you more opportunities to network with your colleagues around those topics that interest you. Several facilitated discussions will be offered in each of the tracks so that you have additional opportunities to collaborate.
GRAB-IT	This year there are no “formal” refreshment breaks between sessions. Since we are trying out the new format, we will provide refreshments and you will have 10-15 minutes to grab something and move to your next room. We are hoping to arrange the rooms in classroom style seating so you have a table for refreshments and note taking.
ExperienceIT	This year’s theme is Communication & Collaboration, so we are providing many opportunities to do just that using social networking (Facebook, Twitter) and additional networking opportunities at the conference. One of the most useful aspects of the SIGUCCS conference each year, according to our evaluations, is the opportunity to connect with your colleagues. Sharing ideas informally is often the most successful part of the conference!
ConnectIT	There is NO EMAIL ROOM this year! We have internet access in all of the guest rooms and wireless in our meeting rooms and gathering spaces. According to past evaluation data, most bring their own computer or PDA. The hotel provides a free business center for their guests, which includes a place to print boarding passes or other documents at no charge. We want you to communicate and collaborate while attending the conference!
