Volunteer job description

• Travelling UPA members are often willing to give presentations or courses to chapters in the area they are visiting.
• However, we need a process established to connect traveling UPA members who are willing to present and local chapters.
• This job aims at creating a model for how current information about travelling members, their topics, schedules can be made available to chapters, and how the chapters can book the speaker.
• In addition, we'd like the volunteer on this project to make suggestions about how this might be implemented, which will be implemented in a later project (not necessarily by you, but... we can talk later).
• In short: this job is to lay out the framework, and estimate the work involved in implementing this project.

Number of volunteers

Coordinated by
