Overview

The number of people being recognised as professional, capable civil engineering technicians and members of the Institution of Civil Engineers has increased dramatically over the last 5-10 years.

The Institution of Civil Engineers is an independent professional association and a charitable body. It aims to support the civil engineering profession, in part, by liaising directly with industry.

The local Kent & East Sussex branch of the ICE would like to continue to meet with the growing body of technician members and give more opportunities for Technicians to come together.

By establishing this link with local Technicians, we can continue to gather together online to discuss ways in which we can help ourselves, each other and the ICE to provide ongoing learning and experience in the wide world of civil engineering.

During these events, at each of the meetings, we would like to spend a short time discussing a theme to get the conversation going.

These events are for the benefit of Technician Members (EngTech MICE/FICE) and technicians interested in becoming members from anywhere in the country.

This is a practical session focused on the how to manage stressful situations within demanding environments. The session is interactive, helping attendees identify simple, realistic changes they can implement immediately.
