About this event

Swap the spreadsheets for good company, and close out the year with Brisbane’s young actuarial community.

Join your YAP Queensland hosts for a relaxed end-of-year catch-up at Plough Inn, South Bank. It’s a chance to unwind, reflect on the year and reconnect with familiar faces, no agenda, just good conversation and some shared food.

Whether you’re celebrating exam results, wrapping up a big project, or just keen to see out the year with the profession, this is a low-key way to do it. Drop by for as much or as little of the evening as suits you.

Spots are limited - register early to secure your place.
