Model view controller developers are not typically members of unions. Many join professional associations that provide networking opportunities, certification programs, web forums, conferences, continuing education (CE) classes and webinars, career information, publications, and other resources. One noteworthy organization is the Association for Computing Machinery, which was founded in 1947. It offers membership categories for high school and college students, who receive Communications of the ACM and XRDS (the organization’s magazine for students) and other benefits. The association hosts conferences and networking events, offers CE opportunities, and provides a wealth of information on education and careers at its Web site, https://www.acm.org. The Technology Student Association (https://tsaweb.org) is a membership organization for middle school and high school students who are interested in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. It offers academic competitions (including in coding and software development), summer exploration programs, and other exploration opportunities. Visit http://www.tsaweb.org for more information. Other useful organizations include CompTIA, DevOps Institute, and the IEEE Computer Society.
