Microsoft Alumni Network and VocationVacations Partner to Help Members...

The Microsoft® Alumni Network, an exclusive organization for Microsoft alumni, and VocationVacations®, the one-of-a-kind company that offers people a risk-free opportunity to test-drive their dream jobs, today announced that the companies have entered into a non-exclusive partnership agreement to help Microsoft Alumni Network members test the waters of a second or third career.



"We're thrilled to team with the Microsoft Alumni Network in order to help its members sample a new career," said Brian Kurth, founder and president of VocationVacations. "In many cases, working in a 'dream job' and living a dream-job lifestyle is more attainable today because of the flexibility provided by the technological tools of the PC/Internet age 8211; some of which the MSA members helped create while working at Microsoft."



Kathi Jones, Executive Director of the Microsoft Alumni Network believes that, "VocationVacations gives MSA members a chance to test-drive a vocational interest like being a vintner, chocolatier, landscape architect, and more before they jump in and leave their current job. It perfectly fits our members' need to investigate and evaluate."
