Dayton-Cincinnati (Chapter#2) is a spirited professional chapter
Dayton-Cincinnati professional chapter keeps the event cauldron bubbling all year long by providing its 120 chapter members with networking, professional development, educational and volunteer opportunities. It's no tricks but lots of treats for chapter members as the chapter has hosted seven events and participated/attended in 12 (total events) so far in 2018. Chapter officers prioritized an aggressive schedule to give members the opportunity to meet, network and hopefully have a return on their investment in IISE.
