Benefits of SIDO Membership

SIDO offers students help in their academic pursuits by assisting members in choosing courses and instructors. Since there are many SIDO members who have a junior or senior standing, freshman and sophomore students can often attain help in classes they may have trouble in, by interacting with other members. Also through interaction, students can buy books from other members in order to help defray their cost. There are also many periodicals in the office which may be helpful for various assignments.

As with any student club or organization SIDO has numerous committees (social, professional development, activities, and membership) to help the members to become more involved with the organization and gain a better understanding of the industrial distribution world. SIDO also offers social events, plant tours, seminars, an annual resume book, guest speakers, and scholarship/financial aid opportunities.

Furthermore, members will have the opportunity to meet important people in the industry, recruiters, other students and most of all, have fun while preparing for their career. Being a member of SIDO gives the logistics graduate an "extra edge" needed for a successful career in the world of Logistics Technology!
