Board Orientation Taking Place This Week The 2018 - 2019 Board of Director’s Orientation will take place this week in Fort Worth. NAWIC headquarters staff will be out of the office, in attendance to the board orientation and strategic planning, Thursday, June 21 and Friday, June 22. New Mentoring Program Being Offered to Local Chapters The Emerging Professionals Committee is pleased to present the updated chapter mentoring program. NAWIC local chapters can now offer a voluntary program for chapters to adopt. This mentoring program is to provide a way for NAWIC members to connect and learn from each other. By connecting a mentor and a mentee in an organized manner, members can develop personal and career skills, and enhance the value of membership. Both the mentor and mentee will learn from each other as each person has skills and experience to share. The beauty of the program is that both will benefit as this is not a one way, learn from the mentor program. The program will give both individuals the opportunity to share, educate and inspire. For more information about the NAWIC Chapter Mentoring Program, click here to view the Mentoring Program Guidelines. New Items Coming to the NAWIC Store The NAWIC store will have new items to offer in the coming months and at the 2018 Annual Conference in Orlando, FL. Be on the lookout for computer totes, cosmetic vanity bags, women’s baseball caps, NAWIC blankets, NAWIC tablecloths for your meetings and much more!
