About PACT

Our Mission
The mission of PACT is to provide opportunities for learning, networking, and the exchange of ideas among technical training professionals.

Our Vision
PACT exists to inspire technical training professionals to lead, develop, explore, network, and grow themselves and their organization, in a fun and motivating environment.

The Details
PACT (Professional Association for Computer Training), located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, is one of the oldest professional computer training associations in the United States. We meet the second Friday of every month to provide information, discuss options, and discover answers regarding issues and technologies facing today's ever-changing organizations.

PACT is your opportunity to take three hours a month to focus on your professional growth and development. At monthly meetings you will hear your peers and nationally renowned training and support experts speak about issues we all face as trainers and support personnel.

Join us as a guest or consider investing in your personal and professional development by becoming a PACT member.

Meetings are free to Members; the Guest Fee is $30. You do not need to know a PACT member to attend. Please arrive by 8:15 AM to register.
