Professional Development & Education

Great Leaders are Great Learners

We offer many seminars and workshops throughout the year that are centered on education and professional development.  Topics include: Networking for the Bottom Line, Maximize Your Membership, The Art of Public Speaking and more.

Hands-On Learning
We also offer opportunities for professional development through volunteering.  Volunteering can help you become a better facilitator, stronger leader and develop skills you can employ in your workplace to increase your effectiveness.  You can attain a level of visibility that sets you apart and leverage that visibility to build and strengthen relationships that deliver business.

Our volunteers receive support and one-on-one training from Chamber leadership to ensure they are comfortable - and never overwhelmed - with their responsibilities. 
​Opportunities include:

• Forum & Committee Involvement - Volunteer to chair a forum or serve on one of the many committees we offer.  Your contribution can enhance the experience for others.
• Speaker - Our speakers are carefully vetted based on their expertise, experience and proven success in attracting attendees. 
• Emcee - Many of our members have been invited to serve as an Emcee which has helped them become better public speakers, develop their leadership skills and raise their visibility.
