Questions posed to all the candidates: Q4

What do you think on the following statements/comments?

I would like SHPE to develop a program that will have offices in important cities, i.e. San Francisco, with people dedicated to stay connected with companies and create job opportunities. Maybe having a direct person at the location will avoid issues with chapter not being active and loosing valuable contacts.


This is an interesting statement. Right now SHPE relies on our local chapters to stay connected with companies and to help promote job opportunities to local SHPE members. SHPE currently does not have the resources to place people at specific locations throughout the country to maintain contacts and job opportunities with local companies. However, I can propose a program to help with this problem. I have designed the “SHPE Affinity Group Program” to strengthen local company/SHPE chapter relations and to promote membership to new potential SHPE members. This program provides funds to local chapters to act as an umbrella organization for local affinity groups. A local SHPE leader facilitates a day of workshops and idea sharing events for the local company affinity groups and also promotes the value of becoming a SHPE member. If you would like more information on this program, please feel free to contact me. michael4prez@gmail.com
