A new event each month and you’re invited!
Upcoming Event:
Professional Development Series of Workshops (PDS)
These 2021 workshops will help you think more deeply about your career and build your confidence. You will begin to realize that you can take steps to have more control over things like improving your effectiveness with others in the workplace, learning leadership skills enabling you to convince others that your ideas are sound and likely to be successful, building stronger team relationships at work, being prepared and responsive to job situations that are in constant flux, thinking beyond your current work situation to where you ultimately want to be, and adopting job search methods enabling you to be positively seen amongst all the other applicants. We believe that your PDS participation will benefit you in many ways as you move into the next phase of your career.
2021 program schedule:

Each row in this table contains the PDS workshop session title and the facilitator. Clicking on the “Session Title” will take you to a workshop description. Clicking on the “Facilitator” will take you to a presenter bio or their LinkedIn page. Not all rows have these workshop description links available at the moment, but it is our intent to have them posted within three weeks of each workshop date.
All 2021 workshops are Zoom based and free of charge. However, advanced registration is required to obtain the workshop Zoom login details. By clicking on the “Session Title” in the table above, you can also register for the workshop(s) that pique your interest.

Welcome!
The Jewish High Tech Community, JHTC, hosts events with members from throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, with a focus on local events in Silicon Valley and locations in Mountain View and Palo Alto, CA. As always, members, guests and first-time attendees are welcome.
Our past JHTC events have covered startup founder experiences and robotics, and there is much more to come. It has been wonderful to see our group grow over the last few years, and I hope you will join us at our next event!
