Why did you run for President of APEGA? Why is it important to you to serve the public, APEGA, and the APEGA professions in this role? Jane Tink I have enjoyed and continue to enjoy my career as a Professional Engineer and a volunteer with APEGA. I strongly believe that we each should give back to our communities and society whenever and wherever we can for the betterment of both. I was honoured to be asked to run for President of APEGA and pleased to be in a position personally to allow my name to stand. It was a truly humbling experience to be given this opportunity by our membership.

What are your top priorities as President and why are they important? JT To work with Council and APEGA staff to better engage with our Members and Permit Holders. To assist in moving APEGA towards being a more proactive regulator. To assist in moving our proposed legislative changes forward with the Government of Alberta. On a more personal note, I am working on ideas that may ultimately help more of our Members become tomorrow’s leaders and innovators. I think we have the skills, talent, and knowledge in the APEGA membership to do more for the betterment of people here and abroad.
