Keynote address by Tracy Adams on Professional Regulation, Deregulation and the Public Interest in Uncertain Times

This talk will provide an overview of these challenges, and consider their implications for professional engineers and the public. It will conclude with some reflections on how professions, professionals, and regulatory bodies might navigate these challenges in the coming years.

The second explores the changing nature of professional work. She is the author of an award-winning book, Regulating Professions, and over 60 peer-reviewed journal articles on these topics.
