Professional support groups are an opportunity for community members to learn from each other. We offer several regular group meetings, focused on a particular type of technology or process. Support groups are organized by passionate facilitators and feature an ever-fresh set of topics as the need arises.
We charge a small fee to cover the cost of operating our meetup.com groups, and to rent the space we use. All support group members chip in to cover this cost, either on a per-session basis or through a monthly subscription.
