75+ SAIT MacPhail School of Energy Instrumentation Students signed-up for or renewed their ISA student membership at our SAIT Student Membership Drive, held in November for 2nd year students and in December for 1st year students.
First and foremost, a special thanks to Mark Tarrant, ISA Calgary Section SAIT Student Chapter Liaison and the IASC (Industrial Automation Student Club) Board Student Members (Marco Gannotti – President, Jalen Ferniz – Vice President, Francisco Manuel Cruz – Membership Chair, Braidon Betton – Junior Membership Chair and Mark Jayson – Graphic Design Director) for helping organize this event.
Students enjoyed pizza and drinks provided by the ISA Calgary Section and heard from various Board Members including our President –Armaghan Yusuf, Treasurer – Amar Mehta, and ISA District Chair-Elect – Jasmeen Virk. They presented on what ISA, the worlds leading professional organization for automation, has to offer and the many benefits of student membership. A few that we'd like to highlight are community, networking, knowledge and scholarships...
