MEMBER SURVEY - YOUR RESPONSE IS BEING SOLICITED

Relevance of APEGGA Member-Survey 2010

APEGGA individual members and permit holders focus their daily energies on employability and business opportunities in a rapidly changing global marketplace. The 1998 Member Survey showed a high level of member confidence in APEGGA to effectively carry out the regulatory legislated mandate. There was also substantial interest in APEGGA adding value to membership in as yet undefined areas.

Council task forces on Emerging Disciplines and Geosciences suggest more action in "differentiating" the value of APEGGA Professional Registration and Permit to Practice. The Relevance Task Force is charged with visioning how the profession will look in 2010 and how APEGGA can facilitate required growth to meet member needs. Initial discussion with stakeholders identified several areas whereby APEGGA can assist in enhancing the "differentiation factor" or value of P.Eng., P.Geol. or P. Geoph. title and the use thereof.

As we prepare for discussion at the Annual General Meeting on April 28, the Task Force would appreciate your comments on the following questions. Please respond by sending an email to Stewart McIntosh, P.Eng. at smcintosh@apegga.org , fax (780) 426-1877, or submit electronically at your earliest convenience.
