Out of all the feedback we received after our national event, the comment that stood out the most was that you wanted to meet more often. We heard you loud and clear so we are going to be hosting more casual meetups in 2012.
No matter what stage you are in your career break – from just dreaming to having already returned – you will find great support and camaraderie with this like-minded community.
We have also designed the meetup discussions around your many career break concerns and interests like finances (saving/budgeting), career-related (quitting/finding a job), and what to do (volunteering/working on the road).

Why Are Meetups Important?
– They create excitement around the idea of career breaks and extended travel.
– They provide an outlet for people to talk about their travel dreams and plans, as well as ask questions.
– You are more likely to achieve your career break travel goals by meeting regularly with people who have similar interests and goals.
– For returned career breakers, they offer you an outlet to share your experiences & expertise, which also helps with the re-entry process.
– It’s always more fun to connect in person!

As a chapter with a regional footprint that covers 12 states, APMP GMC functions mostly virtually. However, we see lots of value in giving members opportunities to get together locally where possible or virtually. In that spirit, we promote and encourage members to participate and potentially help orchestrate local member meetups.
This year, our goal is to offer local networking opportunities (virtually or in person) in each of the 12 states we support. Hosting a meetup is very simple and a great opportunity to meet other proposal professional in your area! We provide invite templates and planning support. The chapter is also proud to offer $20 per attendee to cover food and beverage (non-alcoholic) costs and a $50 gift card for a guest speaker. However, we recommend virtual local meetups until the weather allows for outdoor gatherings. If you would like to host a local meetup in your state, please email localmeetups@apmpgmc.org to get started.
