SWOT Analysis • Strength – Good team work & network to recruit speakers. • Weakness – Staying relevant as local technical employment conditions improve and CTCN membership ages. • Opportunity – Host joint events with other groups. • Threat – Other networking and professional groups in the area.
Chapter Plans / Issues • Mix topics at monthly meetings to cover professional development, training, and technical topics. • Co-host workshop focused on individual career management (if another chapter is interested). • Recruit younger members via workshop focus and speaker topic choices. • Improve return rate for first time attendees.
