Join Your Peers for FAEDS 2017
at the beautiful Hilton Daytona Beach Resort / Ocean Walk Village
Sunday, September 24th through Wednesday, September 27th

Registration is now open for FAEDS 2017 at the beautiful Hilton Daytona Beach Resort / Ocean Walk Village. Highlights of the conference include a networking reception Sunday night, keynote lunch presentations on Monday and Tuesday, and Tuesday night entertainment. During the conference, you’ll have the opportunity to hear solutions to your problems from our sponsors and from your peers in Florida’s K-20 educational technology community. Visit the event website for more information.

This year we are planning a full 2-day Security Manager Workshop to run concurrently during the conference (Mon/Tues) as an alternate track. This track would share the other FAEDS conference events (meals, keynote speakers and networking events). This security manager course will target IT Directors, CIO’s, Network Managers, CISO’s and other IT Leaders in your organization with important Information Security principles and practices.

The course instructor is a well-known Cyber Security Expert and faculty Fellow at the SANS Technology Institute, Dr. Eric Cole. The cost of this workshop is $1,500 per person and is for educational attendees only. In order to secure this fantastic security training event, there is a minimum enrollment that must be reached by late August, or we will have to cancel. For those who enroll, we are waiving the $150 FAEDS conference registration fee. FAEDS is also putting up to $15,000 to support the cost of this course. Please get your security related staff enrolled for this training opportunity from a recognized security expert at a very reasonable cost. You can pay online or select “Pay by Check” and pay during the 2017-18 SY (if needed), but please enroll now so we know how many participants are committed to attend, so that we can meet our minimum enrollment and appropriately size the room(s) needed to support this training event. Our goal is to reach 50 or more participants.
