Working groups

Meeting image

One way members can get involved is to become a member of a working group. IGGI and the PGA have a number of topic based groups that meet often to focus on specific tasks and deliver an agreed programme of activity. This typically involves, developing best practice, sharing information, co-coordinating and developing an area of work.

Members are encouraged to contribute time, their experiences and expertise within these groups and at events to benefit the IGGI community.
