The PMI-New Jersey Networking local interest
group was established to facilitate business and career networking among
PMI-NJ members. The Networking Group's goals are to provide additional
networking opportunities to PMI-NJ chapter members in the form of networking
events, educational forums, and professional development opportunities.
Business networking resources have been added to the PMI-NJ members via
the Chapter Web site. Each month a structured networking event is produced
with elements of speakers, panel discussions, job announcements, networking
sessions and interactive workshops.

Information Systems Specific Interest Group
is the largest of all SIGs within PMI with a staggering membership of over
14,000 members globally dispersed in 254 PMI-Chapters in 85 countries.
Several services including Webinars, Podcasts and Professional Development
Seminars have been extremely popular and useful to the members. Newly introduced
Community Exchange Services, offered via the revamped website (http://www.pmi-issig.org/)
includes exciting Job Opportunities and Knowledge Areas.
Over 30 Local Interest Groups in partnership
with local PMI-Chapters provide professional networking opportunities to
IS/IT members, including one within PMI-New Jersey Chapter. No wonder,
ISSIG has been repeatedly awarded by PMI as SIG of the Year, including
last year.

Specific Interest Group (PMI-ISSIG) you must be a member of PMI. If you

The WiPM SIG "came back to life" bigger
and stronger after a period of inactivity. In 2001, the SIG received a
PMI award for regeneration. It now has over 2,000 members worldwide, 15%
of whom are non-US located, including over 500 members with the Project
Management Professional (PMP) credential. Although its name and logo implies
"women only," that's not the case--it has approximately ten men who are
members of the organization. From the male perspective, WiPM provides a
unique opportunity to learn first-hand about both the similarities and
differences in gender as applied to our field.
While the types of services they provide
are standard, they try to gear them with a female twist. Please browse
their web site to learn more about our News Brief (6 times a year), special
programs such as our eMentoring Program, Yahoo Community, and the volunteer
opportunities.
