ARANZ Conferences
An ARANZ conference is held once a year, usually in August. To ensure ease of access local branches take turns to organize and hold conferences. Guidelines for conferences can be found in the conference handbook, available from Council. Branch committees are required to follow the guidelines set out in the handbook when organizing ARANZ Conferences. The conference is acclaimed as the premier offering of the Archives and Records Calendar in New Zealand.

Scholarships
Crown Records Management and ARANZ are delighted to announce that this year a single joint scholarship will be awarded for attendance at the 2009 Brisbane ASA/ARANZ/PARBICA Conference - Voyaging Together (October 15 – 17, 2009). Because the conference is out of the country this year the two organisations have combined their usual scholarships so as to ensure that the scholarship provides an adequate amount to assist attendance at the conference. The scholarship is intended to ensure the sharing of best practice and latest developments within our profession, an ideal to which both organisations are committed.
