Young Engineers Australia Sydney’s Post

Hot Off the Press!! For many individuals that I have met who succeeded in their career, the causes have largely been contributed to the strong networking channels they have created over time. But the important question is who you network with and what is the relevance to your career. So, Young Engineers Australia Sydney (YEAS) has organized a special YEAS off the Clock networking event to welcome recent graduates to the profession. Will there be avenues to exchange ideas? YES Will it make you noticeable? YES Will it improve your creative intellect? YES Will it be worth it? If you don’t try, how would you know? SO, YES!

Young career-driven NZ professional engineers are the future. So, how do we keep these engineers in NZ? I recruit engineers within NZ, and I've been approached a number of times regarding opportunities in Australia. When I ask why Australia, common responses include: - Availability of opportunities - Project scale and variety - Learning and development possibilities, and better pay. This trend is likely to continue as Australia continues to seek our talent. 𝐈'𝐯𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐫: 💡 Increased modernisation of the workplace with technology and innovation. 💡 Offer flexible working arrangements once employees are settled. 💡 Provide diverse project experiences for young engineers to keep them engaged and learning. 💡 Involve graduate and intermediate engineers more in projects. 💡 Actively listen to any suggestions they may have. 💡 Offer clear learning and development plans to demonstrate their value. It's crucial to adopt a future-focused approach towards the next generation of graduates. Let's increase engagement and development, to retain our young talent for the future of the engineering industry. #youngengineers #learninganddevelopment #careergrowth

Beyond Subscriptions: Shaping the Future of Engineering in Uganda Professional associations go beyond annual subscriptions. They are platforms for shaping the future of our industries and ensuring a brighter tomorrow. Your active participation, whether through voting or engaging in initiatives, is crucial. Case in point: I raised concerns to the #UIPE leadership, under the leadership of Eng. Andrew Muhwezi, regarding several key areas: 1. Number of years for field practice for technician member upgrades: Thanks to their efforts, the waiting field practice period reduced from 4 years to 2 years after completing a bachelor's degree. 2. Technician member recognition: Previously unrecognized, #UIPE's efforts led to technician member registration with the Engineers Registration Board Uganda (ERB): https://www.erb.go.ug/ 3. Opportunities for women in engineering: #UIPE actively profiled, interviewed, and connected female engineers, even sponsoring them for CPDs and networking events. 4. Improved communication: We now have a dedicated #UIPE LinkedIn page fostering better communication. Explore more on the #UIPE LinkedIn page: https://lnkd.in/ek4aWWHj These successes showcase the impact of active participation in shaping our engineering landscape. I want to thank Eng. Andrew Muhwezi and his cabinet for their leadership and dedication in achieving these positive changes. This is why I'm excited to exercise my right to vote in the upcoming #UIPE presidential election. Voting is scheduled for the 8th to 15th of March 2024. Together, let's make a difference! #UIPE #VoteForOurFuture #EngineeringExcellence #ProfessionalGrowth #EmpoweringEngineers

International Engineers.... I’ve noticed that more and more companies are now bringing in international engineers to Australia to meet their local demands.   If you are applying from outside Australia  (or are planning to) and are serious about moving then one piece of advice I’d like to share which might help you stand out is to have your qualification recognised by Engineers Australia (EA) or initiate the process with EA.   This simple step might just get you shortlisted!

📢📢📢Calling all engineers in Europe! In the light of an ERASMUS+ funded Project, ENGINEERS EUROPE launched a #survey to the European community of current and future #engineers with the objective to ultimately formulate a "European Engineering Skills Strategy". The goal of this survey is to collect the opinion of current and future engineers on today’s and tomorrow’s challenges for their profession and the perceived required #skill sets and competencies they believe will need to successfully respond to those challenges. Take just 10 minutes to complete our survey and be a part of this great initiative. ⬇ https://lnkd.in/eWbaDtJz

The engineering profession takes pride in its commitment to volunteerism, which is evident through the work of PEO’s 36 Chapters. Learn more about our chapter volunteers and their accomplishments. #NationalVolunteerWeek2024 #NVW2024

Which technologies do companies prioritize? Do engineering Universities and Colleges educate/train competent and resilient engineers for the field? The Engineers4Europe (E4E) project, has launched its second round of research, including a Europe-wide survey exploring skills, challenges and training among engineers in the field. The goal of this survey is to collect the opinion of current and future engineers on today’s and tomorrow’s challenges for their profession, and the perceived required skill sets and competencies they believe will need to successfully respond to those challenges. TU Dublin, as a partner in the project, is committed to understanding the future horizons that engineers will face, and through the E4E project outputs, how the sector can prepare accordingly. 🕒 It will only take 10 minutes of your time. 👉 Complete the survey here: https://lnkd.in/eWbaDtJz #engineeringthefuture #tudublin #engineeringeducation 

From Today's Zoom Meeting: On IEK Engineering is my passion. If I am elected president then in my term IEK will realise 50% of its potential compared to the 20% now. We will be present where we are needed. No IOS will be restricted to Chinese only. We will pursue industrialization. In 2018 we called for a protest because of the issue of foreigners doing jobs that affect Kenyan Young Engineers. If this continues we will involve the law. But first we will get strategic partners and involve international organisations for exchange programmes. On Representation I pushed for the involvement of mechanical engineers in the billing codes. We will also involve electrical engineers. All engineers will be involved in decision making. Committees will be few and organised along strategic goals to focus on efficiency. On the question of whether it's all possible in 2 years Yes! I have a strategy and plan. This is how I have been able to achieve previous goals. IEK will be remembered for the impact it has had on its members. This candidature is for the sake of the institution. We will leave a legacy! #engineering #EngineeringExcellence #today #engineer #iek #zoom #IEKElections2024
