There are many personal and professional benefits for members of CHI*Atlanta,
including:
Professional
Interaction --- CHI*Atlanta provides a forum for
networking with other HCI professionals, sharing knowledge
of tools and processes, and sharing perspectives from
other organizations about human computer interaction.
Valuable
Programs --- CHI*Atlanta offers a diverse blend
of monthly programs, which often include invited speakers,
lively panel discussions, case studies, site visits,
and workshops. These programs are an effective way to
keep abreast of some of the most salient issues facing
our industry. -
Job Opportunities --- The CHI*Atlanta Job Bank is an email-based service publicizing HCI opportunities in the Atlanta area as they arise. Hiring managers and recruiters have consistently found CHI*Atlanta’s members to be so well qualified that they often circulate their open positions through the Job Bank before making them available to the general public. HCI positions from SIGCHI chapters in other areas of the country are also sent out via the Job Bank on a monthly basis.
-
Salary Survey --- Every year, CHI*Atlanta conducts a salary survey among its members. In addition to getting the pulse of the local HCI employment landscape, these results not only help members stay in touch with the latest compensation trends among area employers but also help graduating students set realistic expectations about what salaries to expect when entering the local job market.
Educational
Opportunities --- CHI*Atlanta offers educational
opportunities to paid members, including a "Tutorials
To Go" Program (professional seminars based on
successful CHI Conference Tutorials) and Tutorials from
our Chapter Library which can be checked out. Online
Information ---
The CHI*Atlanta Web site includes links to online information
related to HCI, Chapter and program history, membership
and sponsorship policies, key contacts, and other important
information. Outreach
Opportunities --- CHI*Atlanta members can participate
in outreach events in the general community, in academic
settings, or for corporations.
