Our goal is to offer guidance to members on career trajectory, emerging technology, and navigating an evolving world. To achieve this, a system of mentorships, training sessions, and bi-monthly meetings will be offered to members with a key focus on trends in technology and the opportunities they create.
Meetings:
BEEM will offer bi-monthly online meetings for members to discuss new topics, updates, and build relationships. Additionally, there will be sessions for training and one-on-one guidance. Meetings will include a variety of topics and speakers from around the industry. In-person social gatherings will be scheduled soon.
Training:

Mentorships:
The ability to give back through sharing personal and industry experience is the heart of what drives BEEM. Mentorship opportunities will be available to ensure our community can learn from one another and succeed!
