[wp-edu] Anyone Interested in an online conference for managing wordpress in higher education?

[Covello, Steve]

I will be involved with a week-long academic institute that day and cannot attend either. ( I was hoping to do a presentation on how Granite State College uses WP as an e-portfolio system for its Prior Learning Assessment program, but I won't be able to. If anyone is interested, I can produce a narrated slideshow of a NERCOMP presentation I did last year on the topic. It can be published among the other resources for this event.)

Recording would be ideal. I am very interested in the program.

Thx - Steve

Good morning Nick,

Thanks for setting this up!  Will the sessions be recorded and made available to attendees for later viewing?  We have an all-hands meeting that morning, so I would miss some of the sessions.

Phil

1) Deciding between wordpress.com, self-hosted wordpress, and self-hosted wordpress MU
2) Managing users

4) Security of your site(s)
