Join

Membership is corporate, and each organisation nominates a ‘Key Member Representative’, who should be in a position to represent their organisation’s view on graduate recruitment and development. The nominated ‘Member Representatives’ are eligible for a number of benefits. ‘Additional Representatives’ from the same organisation can join at no extra charge. Many organisations choose to join up ‘Additional Representatives’ from around the country providing support, access and benefits from the wider NZAGE network.
