Course University, Working Connections Presentations and other Course Technology Sponsored Presentations

            Course University is an initiative by Course Technologies whereby recognized authors and experts in a subject area are asked to speak at day-long multi-session workshops throughout the US.  Working Connections is single-session, multi-topic presentation.  I have also made a number of presentations at the request of regional Course Technology representatives, primarily on developing and implementing Information Security Curricula.  To date I have made presentations at the following:

1.      University of Akron Annual Security Symposium, Akron, OH. February 2003. “The Human Side of Information Security.”

2.      Wisconsin Computer Information Systems Symposium, Eau Claire, WI. March 2003. “Teaching Information Security.”
