The APETT Technical Conference, initiated in 1987, has grown to become the Association’s flagship technical event. Commencing with a Quality Control-focused conference in its inaugural year, this annual gathering now features a wide-ranging theme tailored to appeal to members from diverse engineering backgrounds. The conference typically showcases meticulously reviewed papers, subsequently compiled, and published as the Association’s official Proceedings. This long-standing tradition underscores its role in facilitating knowledge exchange and professional development for the engineering community.
