New Zealand Branch Committee

The New Zealand Branch oversees the operations of ALPMA in New Zealand. Key activities include planning the local learning & development seminar program, membership administration and working closely with our New Zealand corporate partners. The New Zealand Branch Committee is fully supported by a local Secretariat and the ALPMA National team. The Committee are all members of ALPMA based in New Zealand, who volunteer their time and efforts to help ensure we deliver on our promise to members. The Committee meets monthly, and ALPMA members are welcome to attend as observers. If you would like to become more involved with ALPMA, then joining your local Committee is a great way to start.

Get in touch with any of your local committee members today if you have any questions, or to see how you can be involved.
