At the YP Breakfast you will be able to hear more from Jamie… so see you there.
The Young Professionals’ Breakfast will take place on Sunday 05 September, 07:30am – 09:30am. It is a great opportunity to network with engineering geological “gurus” and like minded peers.
Jamie will assist you in meeting and getting to know industry experts and other young professionals while learning something more about yourself and advancing your career.

2010 is finally on us. My name is Kate and I am the young professionals coordinator for the Congress. I will be writing a blog through to the start of the IAEG Congress in Sept 2010. There will be Congress updates and also interesting geological/ engineering news on the way! I will also be adding some background information on the mid and post field trips which are also available as part of the Congress activities.
Don’t forget, congress papers are due 7 February and registrations are open with super early-bird to the 31 March, saving NZ$400 on full fees!
Those that may be under financial hardship can apply for the Solidarity Fund. Applications close 31 March.
