PNSQC Membership
There are 2 types of PNSQC members:
- Voting Members – participate in running and managing the PNSQC non-profit organization. See the Volunteers page under About PNSQC for more information.
- Community Members – use the PNSQC website to share and exchange information, interact, and network with the rest of the community.

Advantages of Community Membership
We want PNSQC to be more than an annual conference. We also want to promote an online community to enable easy, safe interaction that benefits professional growth, problem-solving, and learning. Membership:
- Provides a more spam-proof, privacy protected way for people with a common interest to interact and exchange information about software quality.
- Gives participants the confidence to raise questions or issues that are work-related, technical, or professional in some regard by confining the audience to people who are respectful and serious about software quality.
- Provides opportunities for discussion about conference material throughout the year with other conference participants and speakers, including keynotes and invited speakers. All intellectual content on the website is viewable by members and non-members alike. But only PNSQC community members can post to the forum and use the private messaging and buddy lists.
- Makes it easier to develop peer professional relationships. Members create a profile indicating what information about themselves they are willing to share with other members.
Only the beginnings of this professional community have been rolled out on our website so far. Much more is planned and will be coming in the future.
