From the President!

Dear NSW/ACT Chapter Members,

This year, our Chapter has been committed to finding new ways to engage our members, and we are thrilled with the success of our new initiatives.

Our Regional Professional Development day, held at Kinross Wolaroi School in Orange during Term 2, was a standout—not just for its strong turnout, but for the meaningful connections and learning that emerged. This event also sparked the launch of our online Regional Conversation group, which will now meet termly, further reinforcing our commitment to providing ongoing, high-quality professional development for our regional members.

Our Chapter’s energy and engagement are clearly reflected in the numbers. In Semester 1 alone, we hosted 9 events with close to 200 registrations. This highlights the strength and vibrancy of our community, showcasing how much our members value staying connected, sharing insights, and advancing their professional journeys.

Looking ahead, I’m excited to see so many NSW/ACT registrations for the upcoming International Conference in Perth. I look forward to catching up with you there and hearing how our Chapter Committee can continue to support you. And, we are excited to announce that we are already hard at work planning the next NSW/ACT Summit, which will be held in October 2025.

As we continue our planning for the remainder of 2024, and begin crafting the Program for next year’s NSW/ACT Summit, I encourage you to reach out and let us know how we can best meet your needs.
