Emerging Professionals Summit
Young engineering and geoscience professionals took their careers to the next level at our second- annual Emerging Professionals Summit. Industry leaders and APEGA representatives led sessions on personal branding, transferrable skills, workplace communication, and professionalism. A networking mixer gave participants the opportunity to make connections and share ideas. Attendees logged in from across Canada, ensuring the river of information flowed well past provincial lines.
“It’s a personal goal of mine to try and network and meet different engineers. Attending APEGA’s Emerging Professionals Summit was one way I met this goal.” – Habib Adesola Jinadu, E.I.T., Emerging Professionals Summit attendee

Those who wondered about the habits of influential leaders or needed advice on how to thrive during disruptive times found answers in our 2021 professional development webinars. From technical to motivational, we presented dozens of online sessions on a wide range of career development, employment, and regulatory topics. We also offered a free, three-part series—Building Mental Health Together—to support the well-being of APEGA registrants and staff. Fully funded through sponsorships, the series provided 587 participants with valuable strategies on how to sustain mental health, cope with stress, achieve a healthy work-life balance, and build a mentally healthy workplace.
