It's that time ... time for our annual GCC Church IT Roundtable! If you've not been to a roundtable yet you are flat missing out!
What:
A roundtable is a peer-learning event where the participants are both teachers and learners. A roundtable is:
- Small enough to emphasize interactive learning
- Led by a facilitator and peer
- Includes participants who have an affinity with each other
- Does not include a strong agenda beyond sharing knowledge
Where:
Granger Community Church, Granger, IN (South Bend area)
When:
June 25th - evening dinner meet-n-greet (dinner courtesty of SPONSOR SLOT STILL OPEN) ... perhaps some xbox gaming afterwards?
June 26th - roundtable 9am - 4pm
June 26th - post roundtable dinner and chat time (dinner courtesy of VR6 Systems - Dell EqualLogic Storage)
