Dear John, I'm a member of NTEN. There's certainly overlap, but the organizations have different missions and serve different needs.
NTEN has a broader mission than MCN and focuses on a wide range of technologies that support nonprofits. As an example, here's the agenda for their upcoming Nonprofit Technology Conference: https://www.ntenonline.org/EWEB/DynamicPage.aspx?webcode=EventSessions They're also conducting research on a variety of IT issues, like staffing levels and salaries, and vendor satisfaction: http://nten.org/research Robert __________________________ Robert L.
