SDSUG’s expectations for professional conduct that ensure a safe, respectful environment for all participants.
The SDSUG maintains clear behavioral policies to ensure a safe, respectful, and professional environment for all participants. These policies define expectations for conduct, communication, and community engagement across events, online spaces, and all SDSUG‑affiliated activities.
This hub provides a single, authoritative location for SDSUG’s behavioral standards, including the Code of Conduct, membership expectations, and event participation guidelines.

Why Behavioral Policies Matter
Clear behavioral expectations help SDSUG maintain:

- a trusted, practitioner‑level environment
