About the Mentor Program

As the premier resource for training and educating marketers in the A/E/C industry, the SMPS Chesapeake Chapter hosts monthly informal mentoring brown bag lunches for new and mid-level marketers. The lunches enable those new to the industry the opportunity to meet with senior level marketers, those with CPSM designation, and/or past chapter presidents. These peers can provide help, support, education, training and the opportunity to network with leaders in the built environment. Each meeting is both structured (topic specific) and an open forum for attendees to ask questions regarding current topics of interest all within a nurturing environment in which all participants benefit from the experience of each other.
