FY16 Region J Positions Still Available

Want to make a bigger impact in SWE? Then consider helping out at the regional level! The following positions are still open. Anyone interested contact Wendy Jenkins or your SWE PNW Section Reps (swe.pnw.section.reps@gmail.com) if interested.

Region J Social Media Chair: 

• The social media chair is responsible for maintaining the region’s social media accounts, posting and sharing articles and needed.  
• This is a great opportunity for someone wanting to get involved but without a huge time commitment.  
• All that’s needed is some social media savviness.

Region J Conference Coordinator:

• Great opportunity to be in the loop on region  conference planning.

Region J Assessment Chair: 

• The assessment chair is a new role for this year. 
• This role requires you to work with the Region J treasurer to do financial assessments and audit the region’s financials. 
• This is a good opportunity to learn more about SWE’s finances.

Region J Webmaster: 

• The webmaster is responsible for maintaining the Region J website, making updates to the page as requested. 
• This is a great opportunity for someone wanting to get involved but needing flexibility with their availability to volunteer. 
• You don’t need extensive web design skills for this one – the interface for updates is pretty user friendly!

Region J Newsletter Editor: 

• The newsletter editor is responsible for collecting articles and putting together the Region J newsletter, which goes out roughly once a quarter. 
• This is another good opportunity to get involved with a lot of flexibility, and a chance to stay up to date on what is going on in the region. 
• You also have a chance to get a little creative!

Region J Mentoring Co-Chair: 

• The role of the mentoring chair(s) is to run the region J mentoring program. 
• Information on how the FY15 program was run will be provided form past chairs, but there is a lot of flexibility in this role and opportunities for new ideas and improvements. 
• Can be either just professional mentoring, or both professional and collegiates, potentially partnering with collegiate leaders in the region.
