Spring Mini-Conference

The Mi-GMIS Spring Mini-Conference is designed for the Michigan IT professional who needs high-density, actionable training without the extended time away from the office. This concentrated, one-day event strips away the fluff to focus on the immediate technical hurdles facing our municipalities today—from hands-on cybersecurity drills to state-wide broadband deployment updates. Because the Mini-Conference is held in a more intimate, regional setting, it fosters a unique level of "desk-side" collaboration; you aren't just listening to a lecture, you are whiteboarding solutions with peers who are using the exact same systems you are. It’s the perfect mid-year "recharge" for your team to stay compliant with newly released WCAG 2.2 standards and CJIS requirements, ensuring your organization remains secure and efficient as you head into the busy summer project season.
