Chairman's welcome
My I welcome you to the 2009/2010 season of events which cover a wide range of subjects.
My interest in engineering goes back to my school days and I have been interested in it ever since.
I started my engineering profession via an apprenticeship and further education with my career progressing into technical sales for an oil company.
Later in my career I was recruited to the aerospace industry, were I was a director of a local company which specialised in manufacturing components for the major UK manufacturers.
I was a member of The Institution of Production Engineers when we became the manufacturing division of the IEE and I have played an active roll in these Institutions as well as the Institution of Plant Engineers.
During my year of office I would encourage members who plan to attend an event, to bring a friend or two, as I believe this is a good way of showing the contribution engineers make to society.
As usual we have tried to choose lectures of topical interest as well as CPD events.
Our day time meetings continue to flourish, with the format of a lecture, followed by a meal, showing this to be a successful format. Please let me know if there are any specific topics you would like to have and I will see if it can be accommodated.
I look forward to meeting you at our events.
