The ACRS holds in-person, virtual, and hybrid events each year, with many opportunities for members to network and share ideas. Some events are run by Chapters but where these events are online, we encourage all members to join – online events are generally held on Zoom, and you can learn more about using Zoom here.
Our biggest event each year is the Australasian Road Safety Conference (ARSC), which you can learn more about on our ACRS Conference page, or go straight to the ARSC website here.
