The Syracuse ACM Professional Development Committee has traditionally offered a wide variety of introductory technical education programs. These programs are designed for members interested in getting a fast overview of the new and “hot” technology of the day!
Past seminars have included such topics as:
- Linux Configuration
- Web Development
- Flash Development
- SharePoint Server
Recently we took a survey of our membership and found that the following topics were the MOST in demand:
- Android Development
- iPhone Development
- Windows Phone 7 Development
- Web Application Development
- Cloud Computing
- Website Design
- Open Source Programming
- Cloud Computing
- Microsoft SQL
Our programs have always been on a Saturdays from 9:00am until about 4:00pm. For this year we have also discussed having a series of short evening courses with Wednesday as the preferred night.
One option we’ve discussed is having a series of three “mini-courses” on Mobile Development:
- Android
- iPhone
- Windows Phone
I am looking for members who are interested in helping to plan programs and also those who can help present all or part of them too!
