2021 Career Insights Panel Event

EIANZ VIC Students and Early Careers sub-committee is pleased to present the 2021 Career Insights Panel Event in collaboration with Australian Contaminated Land Consultants Association (ACLCA).

We are excited to be hosting a group of inspiring environmental professionals to speak about their roles, learn about how they found their niche, and the projects they have been involved with. This year's event will centre around the topic of professional and personal discovery, focusing on what leads to a strong sense of fulfilment and clarity around professional direction.
