~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Online registration is still underway for the DC ACM Professional 
Development Seminars being held at George Washington University March 
16-18, 2009.  Registration is closing soon -- don't miss out!

DC ACM seminars are designed to assist professionals in gaining solid 
skills and cutting-edge knowledge to deal with rapidly changing 
environments.  The proceeds of these seminars are used to support 
Washington, D.C. chapter of the Association for Computing Machinery (DC 
ACM), a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing opportunities 
(including life-long learning, career development, and professional 
networking) for meaningful connections between the area’s academics, 
professionals, and policymakers in the computer science and information 
technology fields.

By taking a Professional Development Seminar, you can help DC ACM 
continue to serve the local computing community -- while at the same 
time enhance the technical and/or management skills you may find 
essential for surviving the economic downturn.

The classes are organized into five thematic "tracks": Security, 
Database, Software Engineering, Project Management, and Business 
Management.   See seminar titles below.  NOTE:  Regrettably, two classes 
under the Database track, as indicated below, have been cancelled due 
the instructor's scheduling conflict.
