Why attend?

These meetings provide learning, networking, and overall contribute to advancing our collective excellence as a profession. To quote one of our favourite presenters Dr Paul Wood:

“Challenge is the catalyst for growth”

Branch meetings are a vital avenue for challenging ourselves and stepping into our stretch zone.

Extend this learning opportunity to your younger team members.

Together we can build the next generation of public works professionals.
