British Computer Society

I have been a full member of the British Computer Society now for about a year. I have found it very useful. Apart from the prestigious MBCS after your name, I find the journal and web site updates very interesting and make me feel part of the profession. Entry for ICT co-ordinators in schools has been made easier. There are no exams to do if you can demonstrate qualifications and professional practice.
I can't believe that it has taken so long. I remember when I was at school being totally unimpressed by the BCS compared to the other engineering and scientific organisations. Maybe the next step will be for them to produce some really good careers information for schools as I find the current material uninspriring. I refuse to put up the latest offerings in my classroom.
