There’s a lot happening, from the Government election in November and ongoing economic pressures felt across everyday work, to the need to stay up to date with a rapidly evolving profession. Register for Member Connect and we’ll cover what matters to you.

Join Engineering New Zealand senior leaders and be part of the discussion on the key topics front of mind for engineers:

  • The Government election: learn how engineers can shape the political conversation ahead of the election, including a live debate on infrastructure with representatives from all major parties.
  • Fuel supply disruption: get up to date on how the Middle East conflict is affecting the economy and what steps are being taken to advocate for your profession.
  • Training and tools: excel in your work with the latest training and tools available for members.

Tell us about engineering in Canterbury, ask questions and meet our leadership team. Whether you’re a student, retired or somewhere in between, Member Connect is where you’ll be part of the discussion and have thought-provoking conversations with your peers about the future. 

Light nibbles and drinks will be provided.
