Achieving higher quality software through knowledge exchange
PNSQC is now in its fourth decade of hosting its prestigious annual software quality conference. This friendly and professional conference has been helping you solve software quality problems for 37 years. As the longest running conference in North America focused on software quality, we take pride in attendees leaving the conference with real solutions they can use.
Our 2019 program will explore the theme of culture and how it affects the quality of your projects and organizations. Join us October 14-16, 2019, in Portland, as leaders of the software engineering profession gather to discuss the latest trends in software development, QA and testing. You’ll learn from those on the cutting edge –- and have plenty of opportunities to socialize too, making new friends and contacts to build your professional and personal networks.
The Call for Proposals is open now. It only takes 5 minutes! The deadline is April 17, 2019.
PNSQC is seeking proposals for technical papers to contribute to our program. Share your expertise and experience on trends, process improvements, and technology solutions by answering the Call for Proposals. Check out the preliminary tracks and explore some of the ideas we are excited about. For even more answers read up on the FAQs from the For Authors. This is your chance to be a part of the solution.
For the first time ever, we are simultaneously opening the call for poster paper proposals. Poster papers present a unique opportunity for first-time authors or for authors who have an idea that is not yet fully developed into a full technical paper.
Although authors are allowed to submit multiple proposals, each proposal should be limited to a single topic. Additionally, any individual author will only be accepted once as the primary author. All submissions must be received by April 17th, 2019. Submit a proposal now!
The theme for PNSQC 2019 is “A Culture of Quality”. Start gathering ideas to put together your own proposal for how a quality culture is shared among your team, workplace or company. We are looking forward to seeing you next year at PNSQC, Oct 14-16, 2019.

Attending the annual PNSQC conference can be a tremendous personal learning experience. But what tangible things do attendees take back to the office with them?
