Committees

Make the most of your association membership by being involved - and one of the best ways to do this is by joining one of our chapter’s dynamic committees. Our MPI-WI Chapter is one of the most forward-thinking, active chapters of Meeting Professionals International and offers opportunities on many different committees- one of which is sure to be a great fit for you.

As an MPI-WI member, you are eligible to participate on one or several committees. Committee roles are for one-year terms, from July through June, corresponding to the chapter's fiscal year.  If you are interested in joining a committee or would like more information, please contact Susan Kainz at leadership@mpiwi.org.

Don’t wait another day to maximize your membership’s value- join a committee today!
