NACR will be at IAUG CONVERGE2014 to help customers learn how to evolve their networks for maximum return on investment. "Each year, NACR participates in IAUG events to connect with Avaya users and demonstrate how we can help them achieve communications prowess and the best ROI," according to John F. Lyons, President and CEO of NACR. "This year, we are excited to talk about our continued leadership in the contact center and our multivendor expertise that enables customers to deploy the latest technology while leveraging their existing investments."

In addition, NACR will present the workshop, "Avaya ESBC Bootcamp," on Sunday, April 27, from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. "It is a tremendous honor to be invited by the IAUG to present a workshop on the important topic of enterprise-class security for SIP trunks," according to Dan Gorski, Vice President of the NACR Center of Excellence (COE) for Learning and Development. "It is a measure of the IAUG's confidence in not only our knowledge of the topic, but also our skills in providing training for customers, as demonstrated in NACR's popular COE course offerings."

"Avaya ESBC Bootcamp" will be presented by Dwight Reifsnyder, an NACR Convergence Systems Engineer who has worked with converged voice and data networks since the first Avaya VoIP implementation in 2001. In addition to being a mentor at NACR and a presenter at IAUG, Reifsnyder is a course developer and trainer for the NACR COE, which is in the process of creating an Avaya SBC class. The new course is expected to be available for registration on the NACR Learning Management System (www.nacr-coelearning.com) in the spring.

In the meantime, the NACR workshop at IAUG will provide an in-depth look at the Avaya Enterprise-class Session Border Controller (ESBC) product along with hands-on installation and maintenance training.
