Re-registration Information

Agile New England is 20 years old!

Our new website offers us an opportunity to learn about our active members to serve them better. It also makes it easier for you to find the information you need about upcoming and past events and membership.

One change: we now restrict some content to logged-in members. This content includes summary information about past Monthly Meetings, video content, and member polls.

What hasn’t changed? Membership to Agile New England is still free. No strings attached.
