Group Detail:
The UK Rational User Group is a gathering of users, customers and partner organisations of IBM Rational Software, who meet to explore best practice in the use of Rational Software tools and process.

The UK RUG meetings usually start with an insight into IBM Rational Software product or company news, followed by more specialist process or tools sessions.
