Vermont 3.0 Panel Preview: Be the CTO
CTO = "Chief Technology Officer." We were going to call this panel "Be the IT Guy," but I argued that we should include the geekettes of the world (like, for example, me).
The 45-minute panel is part of the Vermont 3.0 Creative Technology Career Jam, happening this Saturday at Champlain College. You should come if you're wondering what the IT person does all day, and how one gets an IT manager job. Panelists include Ali Rafieymehr, (Dean, Division of Info Technology, Champlain College), Tim Keefe (Senior Technology Consultant, Gallagher, Flynn & Company LLP) and JDK Information Systems Director Nate Herzog (pictured).
Nate spoke at the Vermont 3.0 Tech Jam in January, and was a big hit, mainly because he delivered an impressive PowerPoint presentation. What do you expect — the guy works for JDK. He won't be able to mezmerize us with his PowerPoint prowess this time, though — the panel is set up as a Q&A with the audience. So come ready to ask questions. It starts at 10 a.m. in Champlain's Alumni Auditorium.
Nate has been contributing to the Vermont 3.0 blog, too. He's writing a series of profiles of local companies finding creative solutions to IT challenges.
