The Annual IFPUG Conference & Workshops is a highlight of the IFPUG year. Held in late-September/early-October, it provides IFPUG members a chance to hear from leaders in the software metrics field (e.g., Capers Jones). Learn about the latest advances and experiences in using Function Points, network with other members, meet and discuss with vendor representatives the products and services offered by major software metrics vendors, and attend the Annual IFPUG Meeting. Held in conjunction with the September/October IFPUG Workshops, the week offers an exceptional opportunity for IFPUG members to stay abreast of the software metrics world, and to grow both professionally and personally.
