Event Summary

Is your career set in concrete yet!

Well, if you are very advanced or nearing the end of your study and wondering where the opportunities in your profession might be, or where your study will take you, then you need to attend this presentation and networking session.

The Concrete Institute of Australia in South Australia membership comprises a "Who's Who of The Concrete Industry" and invites Civil Engineering and Construction/Project Management students from the Adelaide University and Flinders University to a showcase of the career possibilities that will be available to you on completion of your studies.

Practitioners whose careers involve working in all things concrete, will present and discuss exciting career paths related to the concrete industry. 

A networking session will conclude the evening.

Help your career take off. This is an opportunity not to be missed.

There is NO CHARGE for this event but you MUST Register via the website and only those registered will be able to participate.

Four presenters in the concrete industry will give you an insight as to where your study may take you. All have gone down different paths since graduating and taking up roles within their organisations. 

They will give you an insight into their career development, what they actually do day to day, illustrate interesting and unique aspects of their careers to date, and above all, indicate where your chosen career may take you from here.

There will be an opportunity to ask questions after each presentation, and network over some refreshments at the conclusion of the evening.
