Benefits of participation
at the CIPMM 2011 National Workshop

The Canadian Institute of Procurement and Materiel Management (CIPMM) (formerly the Materiel Management Institute) has been providing Workshop participants with educational opportunities, information exchange platforms and incomparable chances to network with colleagues, industry leaders and corporate suppliers for more than 20 years.

With the current state of the economy, and the subsequent tightening of budgets for training and Workshop participation, prospective delegates need to be able to present to their employers the rationale on why they need to participate and outline what they will miss out on if they are not there.

The days of “I want to attend” are gone. The justification of “I need to attend” is the reality and the benefits are listed below.

Added incentives:

Attending this Workshop presents the opportunity to network with seasoned procurement practitioners who are on the verge of retirement, experts, regional counterparts, departmental colleagues and industry suppliers	The opportunities for succession planning within the procurement community are decreasing. There is little time left to ensure that the knowledge transfer occurs and that the new professionals are not left to reinvent the wheel. The Workshop is the one venue where the last of the seasoned practitioners assemble in substantial numbers. Networking with these individuals is invaluable. We expect the 2011 Workshopto represent: over 500 participants 60 government departments, agencies and corporations 10 private companies 11 provinces (including Nunavut) 30 public and private sector presenters
