Sponsored Membership Offer
Dr. Jim Hill, founder and CEO of Proofpoint Systems, a Marine Corps veteran, and past president of both ISPI and AFC- ISPI, has made a very generous offer to perspective members of AFC-ISPI. Dr. Hill will pay the first year's dues for ten NEW international members of the Armed Forces Chapter (other than the United States and Canada).
It is Jim's hope that we can recruit members of the armed forces from less fortunate areas of the world and provide them an avenue to learn and collaborate with fellow AFC members in the field of Human Performance Technology (HPT). Contact Scott @ treasurer@afc-ispi.org about this great opportunity!
Free Membership Dues for Referring a New Member!
Thru Apr 30, the Armed Forces Chapter is offering one year's dues for free to any current member who refers a new member to the chapter. The new member cannot have been a member during the last year and must pay their dues before the current member's account is credited. Maximum of three referrals per person.
