SUMMARY:Webinar: Annual UK IMechE Railway Division Chair's Address to Australia and NZ
DESCRIPTION:The Railway Technical Society of Australasia (RTSA) presents the annual UK IMechE Railway Division Chair’s Address to Australia and NZ  “How rail engineers make connections worldwide”\, presented by James Collinson – Chair\, IMechE Railway Division. This event will be held online at 7:00-8:00pm AEDT on the 6th December 2021. \nThe address will examine how\, as engineers\, we need to make connections and networks across the industry; highlighting some catalysts that inspire step change\, pushing us outside the boxes we may have created for ourselves. \nThe address will also look at what organisations such as the Railway Division of IMechE and the RTSA should focus on to broaden the horizons of engineers and engineering organisations as we move to meet the challenges we face on the journey to build and maintain our railways. \nClick here to register. \nSpeakers\n \nJames Collinson\nChair\, IMechE Railway Division and Head of Design – South East\, Network Rail \nJames started his career in British Rail in 1992 as a Graduate Engineering Management Trainee.
