2015 Is All “New” For The Boston MPUG Chapter:
New Year, New Location, New Schedule, New TopicsThe Boston Chapter of MPUG is delighted to announce some exciting new changes for 2015. To kick off the new year we have a new home, a new monthly meeting schedule and plenty of interesting new topics.
New Meeting Location: We’re Back In Waltham!
Since Microsoft moved their facilities from Waltham to Cambridge we have been rotating our meetings among a variety of sites around metro Boston and southern New Hampshire. Thanks to the generosity of Constant Contact, we have a new “permanent” home at 1601 Trapelo Road in Waltham, MA. The facility is located just off of Route 128/I-95, Exit 28 and offers free garage parking. Our meetings will be in the new Great Room South which is a beautiful venue with state-of-the-art electronics and plenty of seating and networking space.
New Monthly Meeting Schedule: First Wednesday Of Each Month
It has come to our attention that getting together once a quarter doesn’t provide enough consistency or networking opportunities to fulfill the needs of our members. Starting in 2015 we will be meeting on the first Wednesday of every month (except for July). So mark your calendars for:
Wednesday, January 7 Wednesday, August 5
Wednesday, February 4 Wednesday, September 2
Wednesday, March 4 Wednesday, October 7
Wednesday, April 1 Wednesday, November 4
Wednesday, May 6 Wednesday, December 2
Wednesday, June 3
New Exciting Topics
To complement our new facilities and meeting schedule we have compiled a list of exciting topics for enhanced discussion and learning. Some of these include:
- Tool Tips and Tricks: Views, Tables, Filters, Groups, and Organizer
- Resource Management (Generic and Specific, Materials, Cost Resources)
- Exporting / Importing (Merge data/project files) – Visual Report
- Reporting (Custom Formula – Graphical Indicators, Visual Reporting, Resource Calendars)
- Process (Scrum and Waterfall and NPD)
- Microsoft Ignite Recap
And much more!
If you have any requests or suggestions for additional topics, please let us know.
SAVE THE DATE: Wednesday, January 7, 2015
Our first meeting of the new year will be Wednesday, January 7 where our featured speaker Mark H. Wells, PMP, MCTS will start us off right by discussing “MS Project Dates & Calendars” – Click here for details.
