Getting
involved in a network of professionals in your industry has nothing to offer
but benefits regardless of industry. In the IT industry, user groups are
becoming an increasingly popular networking avenue. A user group is a group of
IT professionals that come together to discuss the industry and share their
experiences. Through special speakers and discussions, there is a great
opportunity to learn and grow your expertise.
User
groups offer more than just free food, free seminars, and giveaways. Even if
you aren’t interested in the specific topic covered in a meeting, user groups still
provide an opportunity to get to know people in your industry that may be people
you will work with one day. If you don’t ever actually work with them, they are
people that you can call up if a problem arises that may have a solution to
offer. Your network can be one of your greatest assets to have in the industry.
Paladin
Consulting truly believes in supporting the I.T. Community and one area that
emulates that is through our User groups we support in Dallas, Houston and Washington
D.C. The vision we have is to provide an outlet for like-minded techies to
share their expertise in a socially driven format to discuss current trends,
upcoming technology updates and network with fellow techies in their core area
of expertise.

of those groups would include:
