IDC’s Managed Services Conference 2008
It’s probably a bit early to post this, but I’ll be attending this event on the 25 November at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham in Dublin. The link is here: http://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=IDC_P15988
According to IDC, this event aims to educate and inform IT professionals about:
- Outlining the business case for managed services and determining the right managed services model
- Choosing the right managed services partners
- Managing your partnership ecosystem properly with a multi vendor approach
- Choosing what areas of an IT department to adopt managed services, what should you take into consideration
- Tools and techniques for a comprehensive managed services solutions
Should prove to be an interesting day. If you are interested in discussing this topic with me before/after or during the day, please do drop me a line.
Mailing List
- Other than google, I won’t be sharing your email addresses with anyone.
- I’ll only be sending stuff I post to this site (mainly jobs, some tips & tricks and I hope a newsletter occasionally).
- You can unsubscribe at any time.
I’ve been working hard on this, and I hope it’s ok, but if you do experience any bugs or have any tweaks/improvements you’d like to see, by all means, let me know.
What does a daily rate contractor cost?
Hope this chart is illustrative. It’s a quick calculator that, based on the costs of salary, will give reckonable daily rate budget available (allowing for all the hidden costs such as holidays, PRSI, payroll administration etc in employing someone on a fixed term contract as opposed engaging on a daily rate contract).
So, from the table for example, if you have sufficient budget to pay a salary of €65,000, it would cost approximately the same to engage with us to get someone on a daily rate basis for €481/day.
If you are interested in seeing how this is calculated, please drop me a line.
EPIC and CPL
One trainee, Maria Bulz, moved here from Romania last year with 16 years experience as an administrative assistant. So far in Dublin she has worked as a cleaner, but now, thanks to EPIC, she is ready for office work. Ms Bulz says the course improved her language, computer and communication skills.
