Deadline Tuesday, May 6: We will be closing registration for the May 14-15 InCommon Shibboleth Installation workshop in northern Virginia. Visit www.incommon.org/shibtraining for the workshop details and to register.

*****


Shibboleth has changed and we will focus the training sessions on people who wish to learn about and eventually deploy the new version. Those interested in upgrading from v2.x will also find value, but we will mainly cover IdPv3 as an independent topic to ensure we deliver the clearest content possible.


Please be aware that this will be among our first training sessions focused on IdPv3. While the trainers all have extensive experience with Shibboleth, and all have studied and tested IdPv3, they may not have ready answers for all of the intricacies of the new version. This is your chance to stump the trainers in public.

  *   Two-day, directed self-paced workshop

  *   You will install the identity provider and service provider software

  *   Experienced trainers provide overviews and one-on-one help

  *   Discussions on configuration and suggested practices for federation

  *   Attendance is limited to 40


The workshops will offer the chance to:

  *   Install a prototype Shibboleth identity or service provider in a virtual machine environment

  *   Discuss how to configure and running the software in production

  *   Learn about integration with other identity management components such as LDAP and selected service providers


Knowledge of identity management concepts and related implementation experience is strongly recommended. Organizations are encouraged to send one or two attendees who best represent the following functions:

  *   System install, integration, and ongoing support staff

  *   Campus technology architects
