What is the Great Lakes SPIN?
The Great Lakes SPIN provides a regional forum for individuals and organizations interested in improving software engineering. Through an active program of networking, publications, recognition of excellence, and mutual support, the Great Lakes SPIN helps members achieve higher levels of process maturity and software quality.

Who are our Members?
Our membership includes a diverse blend of individuals representing business, government, industry, and academia. Membership is open to anyone interested in improving software processes.

What do Great Lakes SPIN meetings cost?
Our meetings include a sandwich tray for attendees and are presented at no charge as a service to the software engineering community.  Advance email registration ( info@gl-spin.org ) is always appreciated for planning our meetings but is not required.
