New Professionals Network


Organization Of The Planning Teams

The planning and communication of all events and activities will be organized by a group of volunteers in government with a mandate to manage and sustain a network of new professionals in the civil service.

We are organized into three planning teams with a core team overseeing and coordinating the efforts in all areas.

CORE TEAM

The CORE Team will provide leadership and a common direction for the three planning teams, and will have the ultimate responsibility for ensuring that all activities reflect the mandate and guiding principles of the New Professionals Network.
