• There are professional associations or organizations for almost every discipline of engineering and geoscience, both within Canada (e.g., Transportation Association of Canada, Association for Mineral Exploration, Project Management Institute) and internationally (e.g., IEEE, American Society of Mechanical Engineers). Consider reviewing the website of the professional associations most closely aligned with your areas of practice for publications, webinars, and volunteer opportunities.
