The PMI-CIC website (https://pmi-centraliowa.org/) received a new look during the spring of this year.
We are now looking to make sure that the content is up to date and that all the links are working properly. We also want to see what new content we can add that would be beneficial to our 800+ members.
We will be looking for a Director of Website sometime this summer, but for now we are looking for several types of individuals:
- Those individuals that have a keen eye and can spot areas that just do not look right.
- Those individuals that have a knack for grammar and word flow.
- Those individuals that have a background in website design and can assist with format and structure.
- Those individuals that have a background in website development and can assist with creating standards for the PMI-CIC website; incorporate best practices.
- Those people with vision that will assist in creating new ideas for website look and content.Lori Chambers, PMI-CIC Director of Collaborate to Succeed, held an outreach session with United Way recently and discovered an opportunity to help at Grand View University.
Grand View has evening classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the months of March and April (8 Weeks total). We will meet weekly with the students and the nonprofit. The project is run in an agile "like" methodology. Whether we meet on Tuesdays or Thursdays is open for discussion.
If you would like to get involved in one or more of the areas above, please fill out a Volunteer Application Form.
