There are literally hundreds of sessions, roundtables, breakouts, seminars, and keynotes offered up every year at Microsoft TechEd. Finding the best sessions can sometimes take some work, so I thought I’d take some of the guesswork out of your TechEd session selection by pointing out the sessions that are being presented or co-presented by Windows IT Pro editors, freelancers, and contributing editors.
Based on my quick, informal research, here’s a list of the all of our colleagues and contributors who are speaking at TechEd, following by a display of what topic they’re generally speaking about at the show. Beneath this list you’ll see the author listed individually, along with a short session description taken directly from the TechEd 2012 content catalog.
