MPINCC launched the Student Affairs Committee Sponsored Exclusively by AT&T Park initiative in the Fall of 2008. The committee offers Student Members tools for engaging and participating in the Meetings Industry.
This committee is dedicated to providing educational opportunities geared toward the interests of students and promoting networking opportunities to help students begin their career in this industry. Watch out for specific “by invitation” events planned just for students, as well as discounts to regular chapter events and networking functions.
We understand how important it is for you to make connections and have the support of your peers and future colleagues as you get ready to join tomorrow’s workforce. Check out the great resources below – geared specifically to help you ease into your professional career.
