Welcome...
to the System Administrators Guild of Australia
SAGE-AU was formed to advance the profession of System Administration by raising awareness of the need for System Administrators, and educating System Administrators in technical as well as professional issues.
About SAGE-AU
SAGE-AU is a not-for-profit professional organisation. It promotes the development of the system administration profession via online communication forums, regional monthly meetings, regional symposiums and an annual national technical conference:
- We aim to increase interaction between professional system administrators within Australia, and internationally.
- We provide recognition to high achievers amongst our members.
- We also support systems administrators in their daily jobs via various publications and an active email discussion forum. Our members use the considerable body of knowledge within the organisation to assist enterprise and government to make prudent Information Technology decisions.
SAGE-AU members work in all varieties of profit and not-for-profit industry, education, research and government, in roles spanning from junior administrators to chief information officers.
Community Information
SAGE-AU was formed to advance the profession of System Administration and System Administrators, and one way SAGE-AU accomplishes this is by informing the community on issues that SAGE-AU believes the general public should be aware of. This information can be found here.
