We would like to give all members of this facebook group the opportunity to participate in AQA social events! For this we need to update our member register and will require you email!

Hi AQA people,
We are looking to elect new executive members to lead the association in 2023! The election will be held at the Annual General Meeting (AGM) for 2022 on the 17th of October.
Being part of the 2023 AQA exec committee is an excellent opportunity to develop your skills (teamwork, planning and management of events and members, etc.) and gain recognition from JCU lecturers and industry liaisons –> potential future career opportunities.
If you would like to step up and help organise AQA membership, events, & networking please send an email to [email protected]. Its not a job application so a couple sentences will do - briefly describe yourself and the position you are most interested in. Applications for all positions are open now and will close at the start of the AGM.
If you would like more information please message or email us. 🦐🐟
