I currently have my own IT consulting and management business and am steadily growing. I’ve been doing this for almost 6 years now and I’m getting bigger businesses that have more security concerns and I want to make sure I’m doing everything the right way. So my question is what are some great crash course conferences or other educational things you’ve found useful? I wanted to do spiceworld this year but it will have to wait until next. I’m located in CA so the closer to home the better. Thanks in advance for your comments.

Hey Garret,

If you’re like me and aren’t totally comfortable with paying monthly for something you’re not sure about, you might benefit from this article.

The offer is now only for 3 months but the method still works.
