Morning & Afternoon Workshops | 17th October 2017 | Basingstoke, Hampshire
A series of half day workshops on Tuesday 17th October, the preceding day to the main conference. These workshops are being run in addition to the usual APMP certification courses, thereby offering you a wider choice of formal certification and training.
The workshops are designed to offer formal training which meet the requirements of some of the competencies required to pass the Practitioner certification. This is not the only reason to attend, as the courses are worthwhile learning events in themselves, whether you are considering certification or not.
All workshops include lunch that will be served at 12.30

Presented by Strategic Proposals
We all know the importance of storytelling, yet few proposals do it well. Enjoy a masterclass in how to develop a truly compelling story for your evaluators.

The training session will be hosted in the Highclere Suite and lunch will be served at 12.30.
Client Interface & Strategy Development | 2:00pm - 5:00pm
Presented by Shipley Ltd
Traditional proposal teams operate in reactive mode – engaging after an RFP has landed, in an often-fraught fight to submit a compliant document. Yet the most successful proposal teams in 2017 provide significantly enhanced support for the sales process – aligning themselves more closely to marketing and business development activities.
In this interactive workshop, we’ll explore the stages of evolution of contemporary proposal centres – as they draw forward in the capture process to embrace pre-proposal planning, proactive proposals and renewal proposals, as well as then steering the team through to the pitch and beyond.
Attending this session will boost your knowledge and equip you with the understanding needed to confidently respond to the Practitioner competencies “Client Interface Management” and “Winning Strategy Development”.
The training session will be hosted in the Highclere Suite and lunch will be served at 12.30.
Each session will provide you with competency training that has been specifically designed to meet the standards required by APMP for Practitioner Certification. In addition to the 15 CEU credits you will receive for attending the 2 day conference (optional). Each of these training modules will earn you 2 CEU credits.
