TechCommNZ Newsletter
From the President
Conference is off, but the AGM is ON. Very important business this year: changes to the TechCommNZ constitution. Vote online before or at the AGM on 7 November.
We’re eager as always for volunteers. If you want to contribute to TechCommNZ but don’t want to commit to being a board member (though we’d love to have you if you do!) then consider volunteering in other ways, like writing something for the newsletter or becoming a mentor!
And finally, huge congratulations to the winners of this year’s Plain English Awards!

You asked so many great questions that Shelly will return with more advice and encouragement in our next newsletter.
