'''The Advanced Programming Group (APSG)''' is a Specialist Group (SG) of the ''[[British Computer Society]]'' (BCS). It held its first meeting, when it was referred to as "BCS Study Group No. 5", at Bishop's House, [[High Holborn]], [[London]] WC1, [[England]] on [[17 December]] [[1959]]. It has met continuously in London since then, generally on the second Thursday of the months from October to May each year.

Its purpose is to disseminate information on emerging concepts, programming languages, tools and techniques. Rather than relying on publication, the main format for communication is a talk from an invited speaker whose slides are made available on the Group's website [http://www.bcs.org.uk/siggroup/advprog/].
