Welcome to the Consultants Society Q3 2026 Newsletter

During this past quarter, the Committee has been busy reflecting on the previous years activities and successes, and planning for future events during the next 12 months.

We are excited to announce that the Consultants Society now has its own Linked in Profile page where we will share information, highlights and events that we trust will be of interest to our members.

I invite you to visit our page at (23) AusIMM Consultants Society: Overview | LinkedIn

The Committee has commenced planning for the 2027 Forum to be held in Brisbane (tentatively planned for August, date TBC). This will be our fourth consecutive event and will continue to build on the strong foundation established by our last three events and especially last year’s program in Perth. The theme will be “ The Complete Consultant – Technical, Commercial and Human Skills”. Similar to our previous events we aim to bring together consultants and industry leaders for a highly engaging program featuring expert speakers and practical, real-world case studies.

In late 2025, the Consultants Society launched its inaugural Distinguished Speaker Lecture Series. We are delighted to announce that the Distinguished Speaker Lecture Series will move into its second year starting late 2026 and continuing throughout the first half of 2027. We will announce the Distinguished Speaker soon and also a schedule of event locations and dates, that will be held in conjunction with our local Branch COI’s.

We would also like to remind all our Chartered Professional members of the Consultants Society, that the updated Regulations were effective 1 July 2026. Please note the FAQs page on the key updates and a reminder that the compliance deadline for logbooks is 30 September 2026. Should you have any questions regarding this, please contact cpd@ausimm.com.au

We encourage all AusIMM CPs to take the time to thoroughly read and understand these changes.
