Hey everyone! Just a reminder that we’ll be meeting at The Industry in South Philly on Monday. Please RSVP if you’d like to attend – see you then!
We’re a group of macOS and iOS administrators, serving the Greater Philadelphia region (including eastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, and South Jersey). Generally, we meet the third week of the month. Our events follow one of two formats:
- We have a “meeting” in-person or over Zoom:
- We discuss “What’s New” since we last met, and dive into a group discussion or a featured presentation (contact us if you’d like to present).
- What’s New and the presentations are posted here after the meetup.
- We have a “meetup” in-person:
- These events are more open-ended. We’ll either have a social gathering at a local restaurant, or meet at someone’s workplace (contact us if you’d like to host).
All meetings are free to attend and open to everyone (please see our Code of Conduct). To view and RSVP to our upcoming meetings, please see our Eventbrite page.
