Become a Skills Matter Premium Member
Skills Matter members have always enjoyed unparalleled access to the tech world’s top experts, innovators and thought-leaders, and now we’re taking that experience one step further with the introduction of new Premium Memberships.
Our community meetups and SkillsCast library will remain 100% free for everyone — we’re simply adding some new benefits, like:
- ✓ Free access to online conferences
- ✓ Exclusive Skills Matter eXpert Forum events
- ✓ Access to quarterly 90 Minutes with… keynote events
- ✓ Access to Premium Members-only Slack workspace
- ✓ Monthly Tooling Up! sessions
At Skills Matter we have a vision of a community where knowledge sharing and skills transfer are not limited by physical barriers. Beyond webinars, beyond virtual meetups, our aim is to provide a truly enriching online experience — the sort of community-building that was previously only available at in-person events for local audiences.

Skills Matter eXchange Forums
Semi-Annual

Our first eXchange Forum will take place in February. Stay tuned for more details.

What is a Founding Member?
Without community we’re nothing. Community has always been at the heart of everything we do and we rely on users like you to help us in our mission to empower the international software development community. Until June 2021 our Premium Membership will be in its Development Phase — we’ll be launching new products and learning lessons along the way. During this time users who subscribe to a Premium Membership will be awarded a special Founding Member badge on their accounts — this will never be available again.
We hope you’ll join us on this journey.
