MiS Next: Pay it Forward

Looking for a way to pay it forward and lift as you climb? Remember the struggle of trying to break into the industry with no connections?  

In the early stages of our rollout of MiS Next, we have met a number of students who want to join MiS but aren't able to make a financial commitment. We'd like to offer MiS members the opportunity to pay it forward by sponsoring a student's MiS Next membership. Membership for the year is $75. Should you decide to Pay It Forward, we will also credit you $75 toward any future MiS events or associated activities.
