Recordings of the YPMTP11 Case 1 Mid-Way Sessions are in the Team Site Session Recordings libraries. The next sessions in the Virtual Meeting Room are Case 1 End / Case 2 Start-Up Sessions on 3 May 2011 (note: date may be changed).

Owing to some abuse, YPMTP11 participants must now download FIDIC Library documents from a FIDIC Bookshop account. Instructions and Order Codes are being sent. Please contact fidic@fidic.org if you need a document urgently.

The FIDIC 2011 Young Professionals Management Training Programme started in 14 February 2011 with Kick-Off Sessions for each team in the Virtual Meeting Room (at 07.00, 10.00 and 17.00 CET). It ends at the FIDIC 2011 Tunisia Conference which has been relocated to Davos, Switzerland, and takes place on 2-5 October 2011. The final sessions are "physical" sessions to be held immediately before the conference.

Please see the FIDIC YPMTP 2011 announcement and registration form.

A detailed overview of the FIDIC YPMTP 2011 programme is in YPMTP11 Info.

Past participants in YPMTP are listed on the FIDIC Young Professionals site under Past Programmes. It is planned to set up a discussion forum so that YPMTP Alumni can share information about experience gained since taking part in the programme.
