Why contribute?

Volunteering to contribute to Quasar, and the RQA is a great way to get involved without having to commit yourself long-term. The community is made from volunteers and without you the association couldn't continue in the way we do, advancing and sharing knowledge with both our members and the wider quality audience.

Some reasons to get involved with Quasar:

Have you ever wanted to see your own ideas and words published in a magazine? Now you can, we are always looking for contributors - now or for future editions. Publishing an article or feature is a great way to feel proud of your expertise, ideas and experiences.

Explore topics that interest you and share them with the RQA community.

Establish yourself and/or your company whilst helping the community. If you wish to share your article after publication we can send you a pdf for you to share on your social/work network.

Writing an article can be a great way to switch off and focus on your wellness.
