I was very pleased (and surprised) with the feedback, comments, observations and perceptive questions raised by the audience. I have given presentations to a diverse community on this topic for many years, including full-time participants in the education industry, and have seldom met such a committed audience. Clearly, this topic is one that is seen by many as of considerable value and a cornerstone of our profession. On a personal note; I would have liked to have been able to explore more, the relationship between the schools of PM thought (Bredillet et al) and the goal of education provided in the vocational and academic sectors, as compared by the needs of local industry. This particular subject is, I think, at the heart of being able to substantiate the relevance of our profession (further to the previous comments by Hays Recruitment two months ago). Unfortunately, to do this would take far longer than a 45 minute timeframe. Perhaps this is a topic for the PMIQ Symposium next year?
