Fred Swainston VK3DAC told the recent meeting of the WIA Board that the initiative had been well received with 30 expressions of interest, and a number of papers already been received.

The WIA symposium is to look at how a few radio amateurs can impart their knowledge and skills through the STEM program, and help through teachers inspire a greater thirst or awareness.
Fred VK3DAC says it will seek to identify a few realistic outcome projects and those to manage them. There will be a guest speaker, and is to include a presentation on how to develop a possible teacher resource on STEM projects.
Those attending the invitation-only event on November 19 at the Canberra Region Amateur Radio Club venue, will receive more details next week via email. To allow for catering, please make a booking to attend by contacting the WIA Office on bruce@wia.org.au
