SIA Open House Series

A Virtual Meet-and-Greet for SIA Members to Explore Committees, Communities and Working Groups!

Find your tribe. Make connections. Come explore opportunities to get involved in our committees, communities and working groups!

Have you always wondered what it’s like to be part of a community like the RISE young professionals group or the Women in Security Forum? Or wondered what it’s like to contribute within a committee that shares information and trends, and maybe even creates a new standard or develops essential guidance for the industry?

Wonder no more! We’re holding a series of virtual open house events for all our committees, communities and working groups. You’ll get the chance to learn about any of our nearly 40 groups within SIA. Pop in, hear the group’s story and learn how you can join and get involved.
