The FWPMI Chapter Needs You – It’s a Great Time to Volunteer!

2020-Oct-Volunteer-Article-Pic.jpgDo you want to get to know a great group of people?  Do you want to improve your network?  Do you want to be able to list a PMI volunteer opportunity on your resume?  Do you have some extra time on your hands?  If you answered ‘yes’ to any or all of these questions, the FWPMI chapter has a volunteer opportunity for you… and you can earn PDUs for volunteering (typically 1 volunteer hour equals a PDU – up to a predetermined limit by PMI).

What does volunteering in the chapter mean for you?  Volunteering for some may mean volunteering in a level 1 or 2 position, such as managing the chapter job board, volunteering on the Communications team (several positions are open including a Social Media team member and a Website team member) serving as a Marketing Manager, or even a SharePoint Administrator.

For others, volunteering may mean taking a more active role in the chapter (level 3) and becoming part of the Leadership team in one of the open Director roles, such as Director of Communications, Director of Volunteer Management, Director of Mentorship, Director of Member Services, or Director of Mentoring. 

Still others may be looking for an opportunity to be a part of an outreach team (level 1 or 2), such as on the Registered Company Coordinator, Academic Outreach, Community Outreach, Military Outreach, or Young and Emerging Professionals teams.  For information on any of these teams, check out the chapter website Get Involved tab on the chapter website:  https://fwpmi.org/.

The FWPMI chapter has many open positions and you can find out more about these positions on the PMI VRMS (Volunteer Registration Management System) and/or apply:  https://vrms.pmi.org/OpportunitySearch/OpportunitySearch (select the Fort Worth chapter).  The positions are also listed below in the newsletter.

This is a great time to get involved so be sure to check out the open positions and apply today!
