CETA, this is fantastic format. We get to meet CETA members from around the world”
Several CETA attendees, April 24th, 2020 Virtual Event
Our first CETA virtual event on April 24th, 2020 was a major success. Many Chaldeans, Syriacs and Assyrians attended globally from Michigan, San Diego, Canada, Australia, Iraq.
CETA members exchanged suggestions, jobs, expertise and ideas to unite and work together helping each others and our global community that is in at least 30 countries. Most of the attendees requested that we continue to offer CETA virtual events and expand it to additional locations such as Europe and New Zealand.
CETA will continue to serve all Chaldean engineering and IT professionals and our friends. We welcome your on going support.
On behalf of CHALDEAN ENGINEERING and TECHNOLOGY ASSOCIATION Volunteers and Partners, THANK YOU!

Chaldeans, Syriacs, Armenians and Assyrians attended this beautitful engineering event showing our unity to support our global community.
Job opportunities were shared and several potential projects and initiatives to be explored by CETA members. This virtual event lasted more than 3 hours where many attendees wanted to stay longer.
