  • 21 & 22 March; Planning Planet at Project Challenge, read more

Here's more about whats hapenning at Planning Planet at Project Challenge in London in March.  Planning Planet will be exhibiting at the above event in the following format:

  • We will be concentrating on our Guild community and the Guilds’ designated career path within Project Controls.
  • Speakers will be from our Guild community and Standards of Practice editorial team – examining in detail the various functions within Project Controls in terms of the Guild establishing a Centre of Excellence for these roles.
  • In the afternoon of the 22nd of March there will be an interactive session between members of Your Guild and delegates of the conference: criticism, ideas and comments about your Guild are invited to the Guild officers that will be attending.
  • We will incorporate some videos of attendees from the September 2011 event for your perusal and ask for your continued support at this event – particularly in view of the subject matter which is essentially standards that have been set in your chosen vocation which hitherto have not existed whilst incorporating other regulated qualifications established by others.
  • Our commitment is to set standards and a career path of benefit to all in our chosen career – for individuals and their employers alike.

As you all know, Planning Planet is proud of its community made up of individuals, corporates and the vendors all of whom support our goals and enable PP to exist. We announce for this event our own challenge: ‘The Planners Prerogative’ you will be given clues to visit fellow exhibitors to put towards your Project Plan and test your knowledge. There will be a very worthwhile prize (a case of selected wines) and we will publicise the contestants and winners on PP itself. Registration as either a single or dual entry will be on the site shortly and final judging will be by Guild Officers. Please visit the PP stand for your entry questionnaire on either the 21st or 22nd of March.

That's all folks.  PP Admin.
