The chair of the CIPP, Liz Lay, opened the 37th instalment of the CIPP’s Annual Conference, which was held on a virtual basis for the second year running. She thanked attendees for taking the time to join and engage with the event.
Liz went on to show the CIPP’s gratitude to both our sponsors and our international counterparts who were in attendance. She also made delegates aware that Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs’ (HMRC’s) customer engagement team were on hand to answer any questions they may have.
Everyone was encouraged to network with other delegates, sponsors, speakers and international guests over the course of the two days, to get the most out of the event.
I THOUGHT ITWASWELL DONE. YOU COULD TELL A LOT OF EFFORT HAD BEENMADE INMAKING AN IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE REMOTELY. Sam Jones, MBKB, payroll tutor Liz discussed how the CIPP has been working behind the scenes to strengthen its membership benefits, by offering events exclusively for members, such as the BeKnowledgeable webinar series. She also announced the publication of the Benchmarking Survey for 2021, which is available to anyone who completed it, along with full, fellow and Chartered members. There was a nod to National Payroll Week, which took place in the first week of September, and also acknowledgement that the coronavirus job retention scheme (CJRS) finally closed at the end of September. This marked the end of an extremely busy eighteen months for payroll departments.
