Dunedin
The Dunedin group’s membership is currently made up of Personal Assistants, Executive Assistants, Office Managers, Receptionists, Secretaries, Accounts Clerks, Payroll…so as you can see, the membership is varied and the group is currently experiencing rapid growth.
All administrative staff in Dunedin and the surrounding areas are welcome to come along to our meetings, or request an information pack from Dunedin Group’s Membership Officer, Liz Houghton (lizhoughton@xtra.co.nz), to find out about the benefits of belonging to the AAPNZ Dunedin Group.
We meet on the 3rd Thursday of each month at 5.30pm. The meeting topics are either related to Professional Development, Health or Social related activities. A meeting fee of $7 is charged – this fee covers the venue, catering and a small gift for our guest speaker. Light refreshments are served at the beginning of the evening, followed by a presentation of topics with an emphasis on career progression, professional development and personal growth.
As well as increasing our knowledge, meetings provide the opportunity to gain new friendships and to network with others who face similar day-to-day challenges and processes.
We welcome prospective members by offering attendance at their first Group meeting as complimentary, and following that you can attend up to two meetings before deciding whether to join the AAPNZ. Some employers consider paying your subscription costs as part of your Professional Development.
