Overview

This is the fourth Communication Task Group workshop in a six-part CEng series, organised by the ICE South West Early Careers Network, focusing on asset management.

Breakout groups will be formed to discuss questions around the theme. The event will be concluded with a group feedback discussion. 

Participants are encouraged to prepare by doing some research and reading around the theme before the session. 

A Miro whiteboard will be used during the workshop so please register for a free account in advance.

This event will be held online. Please ensure your device and Microsoft Teams app are updated to the latest version before attending.
