The Vermont Fest Conference will be taking place this fall in Killington, VT on November 1-3.
The annual gathering celebrates the intersection of education, technology, and innovation. It is hosted by Vita-Learn, a Vermont-based organization that is dedicated to advance learning through technology. The event is a platform for educators, administrators, technologists, and thought leaders to come together, share ideas, and explore trends in educational technology. There will be a mix of presentations, workshops, panel discussions, and hands-on demonstrations.
MCG will be hosting a session with Essex Westford School District. EWSD has begun a multi-year effort to change behavior and attitudes around cyber security, through a newly acquired robust backup system and a concerted communication effort. There have been mandatory trainings to employ direct communication to staff, plus MFA has been instituted in the Google environment and will soon also be set up in Active Directory. Together MCG and EWSD are opening up the conversation about the constant threat to network security and how to employ a smooth backup platform.
