Mark your calendars for the year to plan for attending all the events planned by SCCMI for 2025

The new year is already flying by. The SCCMI chapter will be having our first meeting of the year on Thursday, March 27th at The Grand Woods Lounge in downtown Grand Rapids (77 Cesar E. Chavez Ave SW, Grand rapids, MI 49503). 

Our technical meetings focus on professional development, which doesn't necessarily have to focus directly on content about cosmetic formulation. This upcoming technical meeting is intended to be a fun and interactive experience that will also bring a lot of value to those that attend. We will be focusing on improving our professional communication skills. Whether we're in business development or research and development, communication with stakeholders is key to project success.

With this in mind, we'll be opening up this meeting for attendees to do 5 minute talks, where they will recieve peer-reviewed feedback in a constructive and professional settings. The topic is of your choice. It could be about anything! It does not have to be about the cosmetic industry (Just try to keep it PG-13).
