IT Gets Schooled on Governance

No matter how many years have passed since I've been in a formal classroom, there's always a bit of excitement in the air that comes with September's back-to-school mindset.

With this in mind, WebLayers is hosting a series of free educational webinars designed to further enlighten architects, developers and IT managers about the importance of governance.

In fact, there's quite an impressive line up of guest speakers for the fall series that includes ZapThink's Ron Schmelzer, Interarbor Solutions's Dana Gardner, Joe McKendrick from eBizQ and Evans Data Research, and Software AG's Miko Matsumura.
