Networking Works!

By contributor,

The Massachusetts Council of Aging (MCOA) is launching a new Regional Networking Group program right in your local area to support and assist people 50+ years old who are looking for a new job or guidance in transitioning into a new career direction.

If you are unemployed and actively looking for work, underemployed and looking for a new career direction, or recently retired, not ready to stop working and looking for your "Encore Career", this program is for you!

Becoming an active member of your local Regional Networking Group program will provide you with a regularly scheduled and professional forum to develop new relationships and acquire critical skills to help you in your career transition.

This program is open to any individual who resides in MA and is 50 years and older. Networking meetings will be held at the Hopkinton COA biweekly on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month at 9:00 AM, March – June 2016.

The Hopkinton COA is located at 28 Mayhew Street, Hopkinton (508-497-9730). Networking meetings will be moderated by Dawn Quesnel, CPCC, PCC of CoachDQ.com, a Certified Career & Life Coach and creator of the B.R.I.D.G.E. Method for the Encore Career and Amy Beck, Co-Facilitator and Assistant Director of the Hopkinton Senior Center. There is a nominal first-time fee of $5 to attend. Coffee provided to encourage networking!

We look forward to seeing you at our next Networking Meeting on March 24th at 9:00 AM! Next meetings are on April 14th and 28th, May 12th and 26th and June 9th and 23rd.
