Are you a Technology/IT Director or Network Admin?
Seize the Opportunity to Join one of our Focus Groups

MassCUE is sponsoring a program with our Corporate Partners CDW, Fortinet, and Ockers to bring together education leaders to provide feedback, opinions, and ideas to inform the development of products to better serve the needs of our school districts in Massachusetts. Our feedback drives the development and changes made in their products. These sessions include approximately 6 leaders, a facilitator and the company. The discussion is educational for the panelists as they learn from other leaders and the companies. If you find value collaborating with peers throughout Massachusetts, we encourage you to take part in one of our corporate Focus group sessions.

There will be three separate Focus Groups -- all occurring during Session 1 on Wednesday, October 15th. Timeframe is 10:00am to 11:00am.

Our Focus Groups are looking for expertise in the following topics:

• Cybersecurity Strategies
• Identity Protection for Cloud Apps
• Network Planning with ERate
• VMWare
• Juniper Cloud Management
• Network Management
• Wireless Networking
• Compliance with Data Regulations in Network Administration
• Aligning Network Security Initiatives with Objectives
• Securing Networks/Meeting Organizational Demands
