The Surveying & Spatial Sciences Institute's (SSSI) Young Professionals (YP) in South Australia (SA).
The Surveying & Spatial Sciences Institute's Young Professionals in South Australia (SSSI YP SA) is a group designed specifically for the promotion of young people within the surveying and spatial sciences industry, and to address issues facing new spatial professionals in South Australia. It has a proven track record for leadership development for those involved, and aims at creating a fun environment in which students and professionals from across the commissions may come together and network.
The SSSI YPs hopes to realise its vision through the delivery of services to Young Spatial Professionals in four main service areas:
•Networking;
•Career;
•Education and Information; and,
•Recognition and Representation.
A range of activities and programmes to address these service areas have been developed by the SSSI YPs. These may be uniformly applied across the regions such as mentoring programmes, or developed within a region to address local needs, such as supporting spatial professionals in remote areas.
There are a wide range of benefits for you as a SSSI YP that will aid your career:
•Becoming part of an active international network of YPs;
•Specialised networking with people relevant to your career;
•Access to current information related to the spatial industry;
•A voice throughout SSSI that has the potential to affect change;
