Join a Committee

SMPS Central Florida is a community, and like every community, we cannot function without a foundation. Our chapter's committee volunteers form that foundation.

The best way to take full advantage of your membership is to become involved in the chapter. Volunteering allows you to learn new skills, expand your network, and engage with others throughout the industry. While many people envision a path for their professional career development, we urge you to consider where SMPS may play a role along the way. Volunteering with the chapter is the first step to a position on the Board of Directors. From there, your leadership opportunities and professional network open up a wealth of possibilities nationwide.

But let's not get ahead of ourselves. There are various ways to volunteer with SMPS Central Florida. Start by visiting our Volunteer page or getting in touch with President Kalia Graham, who can help guide you to a position that will help you achieve your goals while having fun at the same time.
