The benefits of long distance presentations make the North West conference a success
29/02/2012
The North West branch of APM together with the Benefits Management Specific Interest Group (BM SIG) militarily fashioned a full day event with 9 speakers taking part in discovering the mysteries of benefits management which, as you know is difficult at the best of times. Interactive workshops and discussion groups broke up the day with some interesting feedback from the delegates which did show the high interest in unravelling how to identify and declare benefits in programmes and projects.

Salford Risk Management
24/10/2011
On Friday 16 September 2011 around 50 delegates from a wide range of industry sectors came together for a full day to discuss Risk Management in the Council Chamber of the Old Fire Station venue at the University of Salford. The event was prompted by a survey of the Project Management Subject Group’s members in 2010 which rated Risk Management as one of the top 3 subjects they would like to hear more about. The Salford event was jointly organised by PMSG and the North-West Branch of the Association for Project Management, this being the third collaborative seminar hosted by the two organisations. The previous two both concerned Cost Estimating and were held in the North West in 2008 and subsequently in central London last year.
