During the Association of Information Technology Professionals (AITP) Regional Conference in Green Bay, Wisconsin last week, students in the Michigan Tech AITP student organization met President Norbet Kubilus (right) and Vice President Larry Schmitz (left).
“Besides learning the personality of AITP and a great amount of its history, present state, and potential future, I acquired a new perspective on what it means to be in a professional organization,” said Joseph Kodos, a third year computer networking and systems administration major, who attended the event. “The conference provided a relaxed atmosphere to talk with a slew of professionals—a great opportunity to improve upon conversation and professional networking skills. A renewed possibility of academic collaboration between Michigan Tech and other regional student chapters also is a result of this conference.”
