CIPP update
Webinars and forums THOUGH THE first five months of this year have passed quickly, they were filled with activities, such as the popular BeKnowledgeable webinars, the Annual General Meeting, the BeConnected: National Forums, and the 2021 Budget Day website and social media ‘takeover’. We hope you enjoyed the BeConnected: National Forums and found them entertaining and useful in equal measure. If you attended, you should have received a recording of the session so you can refer to it should you need to. The successful BeKnowledgeable webinars will return at the end of this month and continue throughout the summer, so do try to book your place when you see them advertised, as the previous sessions proved incredibly popular.
