Infrastructure Management Institute at NKU offers Free Professional Development Summer Series

The Infrastructure Management Institute at NKU’s new College of Informatics is hosting nearly a dozen professional development seminars for the region’s IT professionals.

The training sessions are an effort to keep the region’s IT professionals up to date on the latest changes and improvements in technology during a challenging economic time for companies.

These free seminars, which started in May and will continue until the end of August, also provide networking opportunities while highlighting technology topics, issues and trends including open source, security, Web 2.0 and mobile application development.

The Northern Kentucky University College of Informatics is one of few colleges in the country dedicated exclusively to the emerging informatics field. Informatics includes information management, infrastructure, processing, presentation, dissemination, design and analysis.
Most of the sessions will be held at the NKU Mets Center in Erlanger, just 15 minutes from downtown Cincinnati.
