CIBSE Young Member Group

Introduction

The Young Members Group (YMG) is an affiliated body under CIBSE Hong Kong Branch.

CIBSE YMG History

CIBSE Young Members Group (CIBSE YMG) interest group was established on September 2001 for local young members of CIBSE so as to meet their needs and interests with other professional institutes through their young members organizations.

Background
The idea of setting up the CIBSE YMG was brought up in the CIBSE Hong Kong Branch Committee Meeting held on 14 May 2001 .
A Task Force on CIBSE YMG comprising the prospective YMG Committee Members was set up on 17 Sept. 2001
The current statistics indicate that young members (including student and graduate members) constitute 31.5% of our total local CIBSE membership. This particular sector of members has a great potential of sustainable growth due to substantial annual flux of Building Services graduates from tertiary institutions in Hong Kong .

Objective
1. To promote the CIBSE image among young members in Hong Kong with a view to boost our membership
2. To encourage our young members to retain their CIBSE membership during their career life through enhanced communications with other CIBSE members
3. To render assistance in identifying the needs of local young members and organizing relevant activities that suit their interests and meet their expectations

Collaboration with Others
There are numerous areas of common interests/goals shared between the Sub-committee and other relevant learned societies. We shall consider the following ways of collaboration with relevant bodies:
1. To invite representatives of other young member committees to join the Sub-committee as co-opted members,
2. To co-organize activities with other young member committees

Inauguration Ceremony
CIBSE YMG's "Inauguration Ceremony" was held at the Methodist House
