Please encourage young employees (35 years and under) within your organization to join a regional committee by following this link: http://www.electrofed.com/young-professionals-network/

YPNs, mark your calendar: the first meeting will take place in Toronto on November 4, 2015 at 1:30 pm, following EFC’s Future Forum & Marketing Awards Program. A reduced registration fee is offered to young industry professionals.
