Skills Matter is pleased to support SPA 2012, - the annual BCS Software Practice Advancement conference which brings together experts and practitioners to share the latest thinking in software development and takes place in London on July 1-4 2012!
Now in it's 16th year, the conference has a tradition of active participation. The organisers encourage conference sessions that bring people together to work and learn and in most cases, many sessions are highly interactive, involving participants and session leaders on an equal footing. This results in a conference like no other and consistently excellent feedback from all those who attend.
