MacTech Magazine, the oldest Apple market publication, has announced today MacTech Pro Events — a new series of one day, regional events that are specifically designed for professional Apple techs, consultants, and support staff.  

MacTech Pro Events are single-track, hotel-based seminars that are specifically geared to serve the needs of professional consultants, IT Pros and techs who support others on OS X and iOS.  The first MacTech Pro will take place on March 4, 2015, in Seattle.

MacTech Pro will take place in nine U.S. cities in 2015 including:

• March 4, 2015 : MacTech Pro, Seattle

“For 30 years, MacTech has served the technical community with media and events.  Our regional events, and flagship MacTech Conference, have been delivering amazing content and provides an awesome community environment for Apple techs,” says Neil Ticktin, editor-in-chief/publisher, MacTech Magazine and host of MacTech Events.  MacTech Pro Events will continue with an event designed specifically for Apple professionals — full of great content, awesome speakers, and a wonderful community experience.”  

In the past five years, MacTech has racked up quite the line up of statistics:

• Over 70 events in 19 different cities
• More than 600 sessions
• Over 250 unique individuals speaking
• Attendees from almost every US state, and nearly 40 countries

Using MacTech’s “running order” approach, MacTech Pro will pack in the maximum amount of sessions possible into the time available combined with the opportunity to talk to sponsors, network with peers and meet new contacts, says Ticktin. Event topics in 2015 include:

• Deconstructing iCloud Drive: What a Tech Must Know

MacTech Pro Events are economically priced, include the full day of sessions, lunch, breaks and access to sponsor tables, says Tickin. Those who register early can take advantage of the early registration and save US$200 and pay only $299 to register for any of the nine regional MacTech Pro Events in 2015.

To honor the announcement, those that register this week can save an additional $50 savings for any MacTech Pro Event in 2015 — $249 until January 26.  EDU pricing for students, educators and staff is $199.
