The SIGMIS merger with SIGCPR, the Special Interest Group
on Computer Personnel Research SIGCPR has provided a forum for better
understanding the people issues that are critical in the development,
acquisition, management, use and maintenance of information technologies
and systems, and investigates the needs, interests, and abilities of
computer professionals, managers, and end-users who work with
information technology in their organizations. Members include
computer professionals, educators, MIS managers, and human resource
specialists from a broad range of organizations. Its annual

interested in issues related to computer professional and end-user
career development, training, and management.

technologies for management, and the management of these systems and
technologies. The scope of the Group's specialty is the applications of
computers in a business environment; techniques and methods for
analysis, design testing, maintenance, and management of computer-based
