About this Event

Join us for a full day of Continuing Professional Development, hosted by all 9 PEO Western Region Chapters -- the first of it's kind for PEO Western Region! We will explore "Tomorrow's Infrastructure, Sustainability and Emerging Technology".

Windsor Essex - Chatham Kent - London - Lambton - Grand River - Georgian Bay - Brantford - Hamilton Burlington - Niagara



This will be our biggest chapter-led event of the year with high caliber keynote speakers, subject matter experts and soft skill trainers, plus professional networking among diverse engineers across Western Ontario. A year in the making, this learning event will be worth your while to attend and ask the experts. Limited seats!

Choose your topics to match your professional journey from a selection of 9 break-out sessions and professionally moderated panel discussions. Whether you are fascinated with emerging technology, or infrastructure, or you are more concerned about sustainability, we have a topic for that!

Visit your own Chapter website, go to Events page for more details, including speaker profiles and breakout session topics, and make a selection.

Ticket holders will be sent a form to select your preferred speakers and breakout sessions prior to May 30th. Note that breakout rooms capacity is limited. Please stay tuned for the follow-up email.


If you know your Chapter-specific ticket code, feel free to choose this option for your ticket. If not - no worries, tickets are now open to all members of Western Region - just select the "general admission" ticket. (Same price, same full event access!)

In either case - grab your ticket now to avoid missing out on this great event! Worth MUCH more than the ticket price!


Limited seating capacity. Secure your tickets early to avoid disappointment! Registration is limited to PEO Western Region Chapter members only, PEng & EIT. PEO license # required to register.
