Results of the CILIP K&IM Survey are in
Earlier this year K&IM SIG ran a survey to find out what its members would like by way of CDP and other events. You told us that you want us to provide CPD events mapped to the PKSP both face to face and through virtual channels. You also suggested a wide range of topics. The full results have now been collated and discussed by the K&IM Committee and we’re beginning to develop a programme of events to reflect what you’ve told us. You can find the full results here https://www.cilip.org.uk/members/group_content_view.asp?group=200663&id=698158. To keep up to date with our events programme please join the K&IM SIG and our Newsletter.
If you would like any further information please contact either myself, Denise Carter, as Chair of K&IM [log in to unmask] or Anne Fraser our Hon. Secretary [log in to unmask]
