"Being a PIA member helps me get more from my planning career and gives me greater career satisfaction. I would not have such as wide range of opportunities for networking and access to up to date knowledge and training without PIA membership. I enjoy being an active member of the institute in the ACT, and where I get a chance, at the national level as well."
