West Michigan IBM System i User Groups

The West Michigan groups present timely information to CIO's, Directors, Managers, Analysts, and Programmers who utilize the IBM System i(AS400) platform in their business.

The groups typically meet the third Wednesday of September, November, February, and May in Grand Rapids - WMSUG, and the third Thursday of the month in Kalamazoo - I-94 Group.

The groups normally open doors at 8:00 am with coffee & rolls and kick off presentations at 8:30 am with presentations usually running until 11:30 (try to have a 20 minute peer network building break) at which time they transition into a general round table discussion on any related topic members may have. Don't reinvent the wheel, somebody has probably already looked into, or implemented the project you're about to start!
