Volunteering

Volunteer Opportunities

Volunteering can provide an opportunity to be involved in almost any aspect of running the Chapter. If you have a skill you'd like to put to use to benefit the Chapter, or you'd like to develop a new skill as part of the Chapter organization, let us know. PDUs are earned for each hour you work as a volunteer.
Please see the VRMS posting to apply or contact volunteers@pmi-tucson.org  for more information.

Speakers

Take the opportunity to present at a professional level to your peers at either a breakfast or dinner meeting. Don't have a topic? No problem - research one of PMI's many standards, magazines, or white papers, and present your lessons learned. Don't forget that PMPs get PDUs for both presenting and research/self-study.

Speaker Referrals

Many members belong to more than one professional group or association. Think about who you've met, or listened to, elsewhere and pass any relevant recommendations onto the Chapter Board - we'll take it from there!
