Announcing Our 26th Annual Dinner Meeting (2011):
So it is that time of year again, when BAADD calls upon the developer Community to come together and join us for dinner at our place! On October 25, 2011 the Bay Area Association of Database Developers will host our 26th Annual Dinner Meeting in San Francisco, CA. Our theme this year will be "Trends in the software development industry - Technological and Business perspectives". Read more here....
Our Organization:
Founded in 1985 and incorporated in 1990, the Bay Area Association of Database Developers (the BAADD) is a San Francisco Bay Area organization formed to address the needs of database systems professionals. Our singular commitment distinguishes us from general-membership user groups.Since its inception, the main focus of the BAADD has been developer-to-developer peer support and networking. Our various User Groups complement each other by providing a leg up for developers, whether they are just beginning to get their feet wet or expanding already extensive knowledge in development environments and platforms. We cater to developers who need to learn about how movements in our industry will impact them professionally, and how to leverage their existing expertise and skill sets.The BAADD holds monthly User Group meetings at various locations in the San Francisco Bay Area. We currently host meetings for FoxPro/VFP, SQL Server, .NET and Special Topics. Other groups may be convened based on new software development products and member demand. Meetings are free. Membership is $35 a year, and includes admission to all group meetings and special events including the annual meeting and catered dinner each fall as well as access to information for Job Leads published on this website.
Our Sponsors:
The companies and organizations that provide BAADD with financial and product sponsorship are what make it possible for us to continue to support the developer community. They are our partners in this effort, and we hope you will take the time to get to know them a little more. Take a look at Our Sponsors page for a little more information about them...
