3rd Annual Development Engineering Forum

The 3rd Annual Development Engineering Forum is going Virtual! 

The 3^rd Annual Development Engineering Forum is NSW’s leading forum, streamlining engineering processes within the Public Works and Engineering sector and relevant for all levels of Public Works professionals. In conjunction with our Membership and Technical Panels, the program has been designed by Engineers for Engineers.

As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, IPWEA NSW remains committed to ensuring the well-being of all Members and participants while delivering a first class virtual event experience regardless of the current climate and geographical location.  

Each year we look forward to bringing people together for an incredible live experience, and this year will be no different. This highly interactive event will be a two half day live virtual experience taking place on Wednesday 14^th and Thursday 15^th October 2020 between 9:30am – 1:00pm as Local Government professionals and developers come together and discuss policy, practice, matters for advocacy and legal developments demonstrating how to achieve success on current projects by implementing new practices and minimising risk.

This Forum is specifically designed for Council Engineers, Design Engineers, Town Planners and Development Engineers in the Public Works Sector. You will walk away with new processes to implement and execute. A platform for great debate, discussion and desired outcomes on completing projects more efficiently.

Join your peers as we listen to industry leaders discuss the challenges facing the Engineering space, the future of NSW urban development, current design guides, best practice as well as the relevant legislation. Additionally, you will have an exclusive opportunity to establish new connections with leading industry partners and much, much more.
