Welcome to the Member Engagement and Development Committee (MEDC)
The Membership Engagement and Development Committee’s (MEDC)’s purpose is to promote the value of membership and be a resource to all our members for membership engagement. The value of AWWA membership means something different to everyone, so it is the job of the MEDC to retain current members through promoting the value of membership, and recruiting new members. The PNWS MEDC is supported by the association’s MEDC, made up of representatives from all Sections to support each other with membership efforts.
MEDC’s focus:
- Support mentorship, student engagement and career fairs through the 2020 Vision subcommittee
- Reaching out to first year members to connect them with resources.
- Provide subsection leadership with tools to engage their members, including Welcome Wagon materials
- Creating and maintaining resources for our members!
