New Online Networking
NEW Member Benefit! Join an Online Professional Resource Group and Network with Colleagues and Peers
What can PRGs can do for members?
These PRGs offer online member networking and facilitate professional and business development. They work just like an e-mail list serve and allow members to:
- Pose questions to their colleagues and peers
- Share best practices and tricks of the trade
- Offer advice, tell success stories, and solve problems
Join one to three of these 7 Professional Resource Groups (PRGs). Your e-mail will not be shared nor subject to SPAM as they are in the member-only protected area.
