Business and IT Executive Education Series
Sponsored by Arctic Information Technology


You know there’s a better solution out there for your financial, human resources, and IT needs. But does the thought of researching it, understanding it, and eventually implementing it overwhelm you? Or do you just need a “refresher” on the new technologies without investing a lot of your limited time? Either way, the Business and IT Executive Education Series has the right choice for you.

Take advantage of either our online (from the convenience of your desktop) or the live events at the IT Expo, the Petroleum Club and the Arctic IT office. You especially won’t want to miss Responding to an Information Security Breach on October 24th and The Insider’s Guide to Information Security Concerns on December 5th, sponsored in conjunction with Digital Securus, the renowned security experts with over 50 years of combined experience in Information Security, System Administration, and Law Enforcement.

It’s easy to register and all of the Business and IT Executive Education Series sessions are complimentary. Simply go to www.clicktoattend.com and enter the appropriate code listed below the session.
