MacTech announces a full year of events
MacTech has been doing well with its annual Mac IT conference event (which I've attended the past two years here in Los Angeles), and the company recently announced that it is spreading out with some one-day MacTech InDepth events. But this morning, the company revealed that it's going even bigger than that. MacTech will be holding fifteen different events in 2012, all over the US, featuring the annual conference in October and a few more InDepth one-day events. MacTech is also holding a series of Boot Camp events designed specifically for IT engineers supporting smaller businesses and home users. You can see the full schedule below. As you can see, MacTech publisher Neil Ticktin will probably be a very busy guy. Some of the events are clustered around one city; Chicago in July, for example, and New York in April. But this is definitely a much more packed schedule for these MacTech events than we've ever seen before. If you run IT for any businesses or clients that use Macs, odds are there's something good going on near you.

MacTech In-Depth events focus on a single topic
We've been impressed with the MacTech Conference (coming up again soon) and this week the organizers announced a series of one-day seminars laser focused on a single topic and dedicated to going "in depth" on that topic. The seminars will be different each time, and they will be in different cities. You can see what's being planned for MacTech In-Depth here. Keep in mind theses are designed for IT pros, not the average home user. The first In-Depth covers mobile device management (MDM) and topics include what you'd expect from an IT-department's needs: • Security and Mobility • Solutions Requirements • Asset risks and security threats • Mobility Business Drivers • Monitoring and Control • Protecting the Enterprise, business, and the organization • Enabling Employees • Protecting data and devices • Mobility creating new business intersections • How to develop a mobility strategy for your organization • Securely supporting social media, commerce and sales • Defining Technology Initiatives If you register for these early, you'll get a substantial discount. Normally US$495, if you register by October 31 you pay $295 instead for the Mobile Device Management seminar.
