Connecting Consulting SIG Members to the Consulting World at Large - Volunteer Opportunities The Consulting SIG is looking for 2 to 3 volunteers to work on a recently launched initiative to create a new service to our members. The service entails the development of relationships with other consulting associations, as well as consulting firms, generating benefits for our membership while legitimizing our role as a focal point for consulting professionals interested in project management. Commitment requires 1 to 2 hours a week over a few months and is a great way to contribute to the SIG. Contact alex.nascimento@abnassociates.com for more information. Consulting SIG Job Postings  KT

those of you who don't know about the business social networking

In essence, your personal connections (which includes nearly 200
Consulting SIG members) could connect you to literally thousands
of business people! Here's

Special
Offer PMI® New Jersey Chapter to Host International Project Management Day  The
PMI New Jersey Chapter is sponsoring an
International
PM Day celebration on 2 November, 2006.
This event will celebrate project management while extending participants'
knowledge, skills, and personal networks. Volunteers Needed The Consulting SIG and New Jersey Chapter is looking for volunteers to help setup a Consulting LIG (Local Interest Group). The goal of the LIG would be to create an opportunity for Consulting SIG members in the area to meet and network with each other. Consultants learn early that having a strong network allows them to get involved in projects that they cannot handle by themselves. This would be a perfect opportunity to expand your network and let other consultants know what you can do. Please contact
Judy Balaban,
New Jersey Chapter LIG Director at 609-520-4386 or Frank
Parth, Consulting SIG Chair for more information. If you experience problems logging into the Consulting SIG web site, please contact the Consulting SIG Administrator at administrator@consultingsig.org |
