Club activities and services
Newsletter
A newsletter Philatelic Judges Forum is published three times a year to keep members informed about judging matters within New Zealand and internationally and also to provide a forum for discussion.
Judging Workshops
One of the main purposes of the PJNZ is in the area of judging education. At regular intervals the PJNZ plans running judging workshops. These are seen as an essential means by which judges can maintain their skills and knowledge. Some workshops will not be exclusively for judges. Exhibitors, who wish to understand more of the judging process, may also be welcome.
Membership
Membership is open to all judges and apprentices approved by NZPF (full membership) and to others interested – both individuals and societies (associate members). Please contact the Secretary.
