Apple Device Administrators' Meeting (ADAM)

The Apple Device Administrators' Meeting (ADAM) is a forum for Oxford ITSS to share solutions, discuss current topics, and develop your professional skills in the area of Apple device management. Chaired by the Orchard team from IT Services' NSMS group, we aim to meet on a semi-regular basis at lunchtimes, for a programme of presentations and Q&As.

If you would like to talk at one of the meetings and share your experiences as an Apple admin at Oxford, please email nsms@it.ox.ac.uk with a short summary of your talk which should be around 15 - 20 mins.

We will endeavour to hold these meetings on the Tuesday of 8th week, each term.
