U see when u are job hunting its a plus to be a member of a
Profesional Body....i guess that why i would want to Join CSK

@Saich, ok so its good for networking, job placements and for people in ICT to mingle, discuss biashara . Thats is an objective well served. The very essence of a sociey platform is much more beyond that. So am going to ask more questions ( in blue below ), which to me seem confusing from the CSK website, especially as a prospective member :

- About the Society : Vision: To be a world-class association representing ICT industry and ICT Profession.

Mission: The Computer Society of Kenya has been serving the individual IT Professionals, Corporate IT members, Corporate IT users, and IT Accredited Training Members since 1986, providing an industry identity and forum, leading in public policy advocacy, offering technology and management training services, and running a recognition and awards program.

If any CSK member is on the list, please list Vision and Mission objectives realised for 2009. Include in these actvities and initiatives proposed and implemented in 2009. Under the Events category, there is just one event planned?

- On the Home Page there are ICT excellence awards. Hon Mudavadi was did the launch.

There is no list of those who achieved the excellence awards! What is the criteria of these awards, selection process and the tag " voted blah bla of the year blah - computer society of kenya "?

I have a feeling this thread is going to archives sooner than I think.
