About the Theme

If you put together the words technology, real, and simple, a lot of people will shake their heads no. Some will laugh. Some will say you have lost your mind.

Technology is real though. Just how real? We can order our movies online and have them in our mailbox instead of going to the video store. We send an email instead of walking 10 feet to ask a question. We take pictures that we can see in a matter of seconds instead of having film developed and waiting—gasp!—overnight. So, our reality involves technology.

That must mean that the part of the statement that makes you chuckle or shake your head is the “simple” part. Think, though, of the technology you use every day: email, cell phones, digital cameras—they are all now simple for you. They are a part of your daily routine. You cannot imagine life without them.

Today’s conference aims to make more and more technology simple for you. From better understanding operating systems, to breaking down the records-keeping procedure, to showing you ways to make computer security as easy as locking a door, there are sessions full of information to show you that all the technology you use in your daily job can be simple.

ITC is here to help make your work life a little simpler. So sit back, relax, and let us show you how. It's really that simple!

The conference registration fee is just $25.
