Registration Now Open for Identity Week

Registration is now open for Identity Week, November 11-15, 2013, held in Burlingame, California, just south of San Francisco. The event, led by Internet2, will bring together the InCommon community, identity management technical implementers and architects, and U.S. and international leaders in the field of identity and access management.

Each of the following three meetings has a separate registration, so you can choose the one(s) right for you. For links to each of these meetings, the online registration process, and the hotel registration site, please visit www.incommon.org/idweek.

Advance CAMP: Identity Services Summit (Nov. 12-13) Leading identity architects and developers from research and education will gather and focus on the state-of-the-art in identity services and leading-edge work. Using an unconference format, those attending determine the agenda and discussion topics, providing substantial time for exploration and discussion. Details are here: https://spaces.internet2.edu/display/ACAMP2013/

CAMP Pre-Conference Workshop: Getting Started with Federated Identity Management (Nov. 13) - Those just getting started with identity management will be interested in this Wednesday afternoon workshop. The program will focus on the primary principles that underlie an effective identity management system, look at how federated IdM fits and why it is important, and introduce you to InCommon. There is a separate registration for the pre-conference. More information is at:
