In addition to exceptional content, BSDCon also features four 
professional-level, educational tutorials. Practical and immediately

your knowledge about BSD and to stay current with the technology. 
BSDCon offers the following tutorials:

* FreeBSD Kernel Internals, Part I and II

BSDCon's combination of technical tracks, invited talks, tutorials,
