• CIN will be sunsetting the official CIN app! The app will be turned off on Saturday, August 1st. Thank you to everyone who used the app to post updates. It just was not adopted as much as hoped. This is ONLY the mobile app. The CIN community is not being affected. :)

    Guys, I've share this attachment with Stephen and others at CompTIA, but I think it goes a long way at explaining the difference we can all make as CIN members. A while back there was a posting in the CIN Jobs section about mentoring for a non-profit. Since oftentimes I'm no longer gainfully employed (aka retired), I thought I might as well keep busy so I took on the role as a volunteer mentor. Attached is a recent LinkedIn conversation with one of the students I worked with. It makes it all worthwhile.....

    Sounds like he plugged away, took his loss, and turned it around. I've seen a number of these in my career in education - it hurts when they lose, but when the come back and win one, they are stoked.

    Thanks for sharing that!
