A great attendance made for a great banquet.
CONGRATULATIONS to all the winners.
Remember that even if you didn’t get a prize, just competing in a National contest makes you a winner.
Come back often for new postings all year long.
SEE YOU NEXT YEAR IN ST. LOUIS, MO!!
NCC2012 is under way and from all indicators a HUGE success. There was a large number of attendees for the panel discussion and the keynote speaker. Kevin….nice job on breakfast. The study hall was very busy this morning so be sure to checkout the third floor and the MTA process. There were many job interviews going on, so be sure to visit the exhibitors area (resume in hand).
HAVE A GREAT CONFERENCE……
NCC 2012 is fast approaching, and your conference staff is diligently working to get everything in line for another great conference in San Antonio!
A few weeks ago we announced the final round of PC Troubleshooting would be utilizing VMware rather than the old and busted PCs we have hauled around for the past few years (Note – see the IMPORTANT system requirements for the 10 participants that make it to the finals: http://aitpncc-contests.org/?page_id=14).
The response has been astounding – 141 contestants signed up so far!
As we continue to improve the contests, today we’re announcing a new “Leaderboard” system that will show the top test takers in real time on projectors just outside the contest labs! Gather around and cheer your classmates on to victory in their race to IT Dominance – it will be quite the show!
As always, keep checking back here for important conference updates, and keep those registrations coming in at http://www.aitp.org/ncc!
See you all soon in San Antonio!
