Can’t make it to Nashville? You don’t have to miss it.

We take the “Worldwide” in our conference title seriously.

So we put our thinking caps on and set out to improve the virtual experience for effortless learning, no matter where you’re joining from. We believe our CA 2E and CA Plex content — the deep dives, the training sessions, the direct access to IBM and Broadcom — is the best on the market, and we’re determined to put it within reach of anyone in this community, anywhere in the world.

That’s why we’ve expanded and retooled our virtual conference experience with the latest technology, built to deliver the best possible experience whether you’re in the room with us in Nashville or joining from the other side of the globe.

  • Live-streamed access to select technical sessions as they happen
  • Full recordings of those sessions, available to revisit after the conference
  • The same expert-led content shaping this year’s program — including AI Deep Dives, CA 2E and CA Plex sessions, and direct insight from speakers like Broadcom’s Chi Chen and IBM’s Tim Rowe

About the Conference

This gathering continues to deliver up-to-date training, which results in enormous success for our user community. As in previous years, we will offer multiple tracks of proven, focused sessions on CA 2E and CA Plex – covering everything from basic development techniques for novices – to advanced topics for seasoned users. We will have details on CA 2E and CA Plex, enabling participants to leverage the latest features including Security and API integration. Details on the agenda will be posted here.

The conference gets going quickly on day one with morning and afternoon hands-on labs, FREE with conference attendance. We aim to provide a full slate of offerings that will satisfy users across product lines and with varying degrees of expertise. You’ll also have time to consider the latest and greatest ideas from our co-sponsors and valuable partners in the vendor area.

For such an affordable registration fee, there is simply no other event that delivers equal value for the money, with three full days of training and actionable information. This is a unique opportunity to interact with both CA engineering staff and your development peers across a wide range of organizations.

Be sure to book your stay early to take advantage of the great nearby hotels, as there will only be a limited number of available rooms.

We will continue to provide updates as conference details and news are announced. You can also follow conference news via Twitter (@Plex2E or #Plex2E), Facebook and the CA 2E/Plex Community itself.

On behalf of CA and our conference co-sponsors, we’d love to have you join us to enjoy training in the warm Florida sunshine this spring.

Yours truly,

Roger Griffith (President, CA Plex / CA 2E User Community)
