The current AUSIT QLD branch would like to extend their welcome to any colleagues who are interested in joining the committee. Some of our committee members are ending their terms and we are seeking new committee members to fill their roles.

If you are feeling particularly ambitious, we have several positions open for the coming year, such as Chair and PD Coordinator. Newcomers to these roles can be assured that they will have the full support of the outgoing position holder and the entire committee.

If you feel you’d prefer to not have such an active role, it is possible to join the committee without being allocated a position. Becoming a committee member requires you to attend a two hour meeting once a month, give your opinion where you see fit, engage in projects undertaken by the Committee, and provide a hand here and there with organising events. It doesn’t matter if you are new to the T/I profession, or a seasoned professional, all voices are valid and valued!

Some of the benefits of being part of the committee are:

· Increased awareness of inner workings of the industry
. First-hand ability to make a difference to the T/I profession

· Develop new professional relationships and contacts
· Reduce the isolation associated with our profession
· Be recognised amongst your peers and employers as someone who is actively engaged with the industry
· Gain greater professional recognition
· Allocation of PD points for your participation in the committee

We are an extremely friendly and lively bunch of people, and you can be sure you will receive many benefits by joining.

If you have any questions about what is it like to be on the committee, please contact us at qld@ausit.org.

The AGM will be followed by a presentation by Patricia Avila on Interpreters and Translators at the Frontline Series: Ethics with a Difference ©. Please register for this PD event separately.

The AGM and Presentation are both FREE events for AUSIT members.

Don't miss the opportunity to learn about the work of your Branch Committee over the past 12 months and to have a say in its future. For additional information or any queries, please contact the branch at qld@ausit.org.

The zoom link details for the webinar will be emailed out two (2) days before the event.  We ask that you please keep the AGM zoom link private so that non-members do not mistakenly attend. 

This meeting will not be recorded
