Member Benefits

"Why should you join a Windows User Group?"... if you have the desire to learn how to improve your experience with Windows, want to share ideas, network, and have a good time, then you should come out and join us, says CWUG Founding Chairman, Robert Nottoli.

CWUG is a community of individuals dedicated to making the users and administrators of Windows products successful in their work, home and leisure environments through the sharing of ideas, best practices, information and research and development.

Join CWUG for free and you'll get an incredibly long list of benefits. They include:

  • Monthly community gatherings
  • Presentations by leading Microsoft and industry technical specialists
  • Special interest groups (SIGs) formed around important topics
  • Access to our SharePoint Portal for collaboration and resources
  • Members-only training sessions
  • Hands-on experience

More Reasons?... Great ROI (Return on Involvement)

When you give time to the Chicago Windows User Group, you will get a great return on your involvement. CWUG is ramping up a broad slate of activities for local IT professionals to get more from MS Windows Server 2003.

  • Networking: Members can attend monthly community gatherings which will be designed to establish and maintain personal connections among members.
  • Communications: Members can access and contribute to the CWUG SharePoint Portal that will promote ideas and best practices, and which will be the voice for the local Windows community. They will also have an official, interactive forum for communicating with other members.
  • Learning: The User Group organizes and sponsors both formal and informal technical presentations on aspects of Windows-related products. CWUG also creates special training groups focused on preparing members for Windows certifications (both MS and non-MS). It hosts special hands-on labs for Windows training to be delivered during technical meetings.
  • Community Action: We create opportunities for our members to contribute their IT expertise to those who otherwise would not have access to good technology resources, such as other non-for-profits, schools, and community organizations.
