Volunteer/Join a Committee

The best way to get the most out of your MPI-CAC membership is by joining a committee. It’s a great way to network, utilize your skills or challenge yourself to try something new! We know everyone has busy schedules, but many of our committees have a variety of tasks that can be done in just one hour a month!

Committees are always looking for members with leadership skills, creative mindsets and the drive to collaborate with fellow industry professionals. Click here to see the full list of committees and to fill out the committee interest form.

How often does your committee meet?
Since we rolled right into our first program we've been meeting just about every week.

Set up zoom platform, manage marketing content for the program that is being pushed out to members, work alongside content team to ensure event objectives are aligned, manage rehearsals with speakers and manage day-of logistics.

Our committee is very small so most of the work falls on the co-chairs. They are all extremely proactive and have done a phenomenal job at taking on all the work that is involved in hosting these educational events.
