About
UPA Boston
The Usability Professionals Association's Boston Chapter (UPA Boston) is a 501c6 nonprofit organization and is the local arm of a national organization. UPA Boston provides a forum for usability practitioners to share techniques and experiences.
The UPA attracts a variety of people: newcomers to our field and experienced
practitioners, as well as the distinguished professionals who have been defining
and shaping the field of usability for decades. The UPA also provides supportive
information to senior executives, managers, team leads, and those who are usability
advocates within their organizations.
About Our Two Websites
Currently the UPA Boston has two websites - our intRAnet site (http://upabostonchapter.webexone.com) and our intERnet site (www.upaboston.org).
Our intRAnet site allows us to manage the membership list, as well as maintain documents that can only be available for our members. Unfortunately, the site itself is very rigid and doesn't provide many options for displaying information... hence, we created our intERnet site.
We hope you'll be patient with us as we make the distinction more clear through time. Thanks!
