Volunteer Interest Form

Looking to get the most out of your membership while getting to know fellow SMPS members? Join a committee!

SMPS Research Triangle is only successful through the efforts of our volunteers. Besides working with other members, you’ll have a chance to gain new skills and help our Chapter thrive. Find a committee that fits your interests!

• Education Committee: As part of its mission, SMPS is committed to offering professional development opportunities and educational resources as a benefit to its members.

The Events Committee is responsible for collaborating with the Education Committee to plan programs that benefit the A/E/C industry and marketing/business development professionals. This includes managing all event logistics and arrangements to ensure each program runs smoothly from start to finish.
