Attend AFWA PR Dinner - June 23, 2016 

Join us for our annual Public Relations (PR) Dinner.  If you can only attend one event this year, this is the one!

We will be hosting our Four  Scholarship Winners.  We have invited them to attend so you will get the opportunity to meet them and know that you've helped each of them just by purchasing Scholarship tickets each month.

We will be thanking our current AFWA San Diego Chapter's Board of Officers & Directors for their service for this past year.  Please take the time to say thank you to each of them for their hard work and dedication for the past year in helping to bringing you all of the wonderful events, speakers, and donations for the scholarship fund.

We will install the new AFWA San Diego Chapter's Board of Officers & Directors for the July 2016 - June 2017  term.

The average person will change careers 5 to 7 times during their life, often due to disillusionment, changes in values, diminishing industries, business merger/closure, money.  Imagine recreating your career and feeling happy, fulfilled, and challenged.  What if you don’t know what you want?  What if you’re 50 or older?   What if you’ve been out of the workforce for a long time?  What do you do?  Learn how to bridge the gap from wanting to having the career of your dreams.     

 What you’ll learn: 

  • A simple process to help clarify your next career path.   
  • How to enhance your personal presence and shine in interviews and on the job.
  • The number one way to switch careers—easily.    
  • The best way to attract opportunities
