There is an interesting volunteer opportunity that is focused around helping my PMI Chapter manage their MS Dynamics ticketing system. I have worked help desk before and I love using MS Dynamics so naturally I'm tempted to apply for this opening but I'm wondering if none project management/coordination volunteering opportunities will help me build my portfolio. I have never volunteered with PMI before. Saving Changes...

Not at all. if you need project manger experience remember that each people on this world is performing project mangerment from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed. I performed class courses about this topic from years. The diference is the degree of formality you have to follow when you will go to apply it inside organizations and it depends of the framwork you choose (PMI, IPMA, GPM, etc.) Saving Changes...
Just because its volunteering does not make it any less of a challenge so if its working with an application that you love using then this experience will only benefit you by expanding your professional network and portfolio experience. Saving Changes...
