Community Relations Committee

Committee Scope:

The scope of the Community Outreach Committee is to establish a relationship with community organizations to further enhance the value of the chapter to our membership and to the community. Community organizations are local colleges/universities (Eastern, Washtenaw Community College, Cleary University, Schoolcraft, etc.) and other non-profit organizations (ASQ 1010, PMI GLC, PMI Capital Chapter, PMI Thumb Chapter, etc.). The scope of this committee can be expanded with the approval of the board through the submittal of a business case with costs, benefits, and risks associated wit the expansion.
