I love this organization as they have one of the most cohesive Women in Mission Critical (WIMCO) and were one of the first to do so. They have national and local chapter events, including local WIMCO events with a plethora of content. Some have scholarships as well, but in all cases these chapters and the national chapter provide exceptional content. They are also the founding organization behind International Data Center Day. Watch for the festivities.
