The IQA's Young Member Network Vision is: To assist the development of the young members in the extractive industry and provide networking opportunities.
IQA's Young Member Network Mission:
The IQA's Young Member Network (YMN) has been established to provide our young members and those that are interested in the quarry industry with guidance, support and an opportunity to develop successful career within the industry. Our national network has been established so like-minded young people can get to know their peers, share ideas and experiences, build key industry contacts and perhaps develop new friendships.
The IQA's Young Member Network is open to any IQA member 35 years old or younger.
