AMC Chairman’s Annual Report (session 2017-2018)
I am most honored to have served as the Chairman of
the Associate Members Committee (AMC) for session 2017-18.
Over the years, AMC had been actively
working on all opportunities to increase the professional and public
recognition of Associate Member status/qualification with full support of HKIE.
I am therefore most happy to report some good news. Firstly, some local
companies have now listed AM membership of HKIE as their preferred
qualification in their job qualification requirements. Secondly, the HKIE
Executive had formed a Task Force on the Development of AM in early 2017, and a
report had been submitted by the Task Force in August 2017, so we look forward
to the release of the report and any follow up actions taken by HKIE. Lastly, in
the HKIE Annual Dinner held in March 2018, we were most glad to share the happy
occasion of Mr. Benjamin Lam,
who is a past AMC Chairman and a current AMC Member, in being awarded the prestigious
HKIE President's Award, which clearly showed that HKIE does recognize the hard
work and achievements of AMs.
Since the formation of the AMC by a group of
enthusiastic associate members in 1992, together with the dedication of our Past Chairmen and Committee Members, many seminars, technical visits and
other learned society activities had been organized every year to serve our
members. During the current
session, we have organized/co-organized a large number of Technical Seminars
and Visits which had been very well supported and a summary is given in the
Appendix for your reference. You are most welcome to visit our AMC website to
find out the full details and some reports of these events.
In
concluding, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to
all Committee Members and Helpers for their tremendous support and hard work in
the current session, and hope that our future AMC team of committee members will
continue this great tradition so that we would be united in our efforts to
strive to provide better services to our members and overcome the challenges
facing us. Last but not least, I would like to thank all AMs and other HKIE members who had supported
our activities in the current session, and I hope we can continue to have your
support in all AMC activities in the coming session.
