Members of ebAWIS as well as past and future volunteers are invited to spend networking time getting to know one another while developing the 2009/2010 speaker events. We welcome folks new to AWIS to attend. Meet and greet with one another! Tap into the resources in the Bay Area. Come by and find out how ebAWIS can benefit you and how you can be part of ebAWIS.
ebAWIS has had a positive impact on our members’ personal and professional careers. Many of the benefits include learning and developing new skills, a sense of achievement, boosting your career options, new experiences, and networking. In a time of recession without a job, it’s important to make your resume unique. ebAWIS gives one a good work-life balance, which is very important to employers.
