Being involved in a committee is a great way to get to know other MPI members and get more value and R.O.I. out of your membership.
The membership committee works with the Dallas Headquarters to process applications for the local chapter and to welcome and encourage local meeting professionals to join the MPI GEC chapter. Our committee creates membership incentive programs, honours our members with awards and service pins as well as implements an Ambassador program for new members to welcome them to our chapter.
Our committee is responsible for planning 8 monthly professional development events a year. We select the best venues, and the most exciting speakers who are entertaining but who will deliver strong educational content that will interest all of our Meeting Professional members. If you have an interest in producing meetings with a WOW educational factor we want you on our committee. With the resources MPI offers and our contacts our meetings will be the best.
Our committee is responsible for following marketing trends, educating followers on what is new in our industry, promoting upcoming events, and most of all keeping our members updated and alerted to anything happening with our Chapter! If you are well adapted to our digitally growing world, this could be a great way to flex your social muscles and help us expand our communications frontier!
Being involved in a committee is a great way to get to know other MPI members and get more out of your membership. On the Events Committee we get to plan great events such as the annual Holiday Party (alongside ILEA and PCMA), Global Meeting Industry Day, our June Gala and finally our September Schmooze. It's great fun organizing an event, and you will get a wealth of hands-on experience and knowledge that can prepare you for event planning.
Being involved in a committee is a great way to get to know other MPI members and get more out of your membership. On the Partnerships Committee you get to visit venues, meet with professionals in the industry and utilize your inner-sales person to ensure that we as a Chapter continue to partner with great sponsors from around British Columbia!
