The Swiss Informatics Society (SI) promotes professionalism among all those working in the field of information technology (IT). The SI has about 2000 members and is the largest professional association in Switzerland exclusively representing people working in the IT field or promoting our goals. SI members hold a university degree in computer science or have acquired their knowledge and experience in specialized courses and through practice. Members may also be those who simply wish to support the goals of SI - without necessarily being IT professionals themselves.
