YPMTP11 Practical Information
The FIDIC Young Professionals Management Training Programme (YPMTP) is based upon the eFIDIC Training Platform, a web-based content management system. Virtual on-line Meeting Room sessions (seven sessions during each seven-month YPMTP programme) take place on the BT LiveMeeting webconferencing platform. The audio part of the webconferencing sessions is provided via normal telephone lines using BT MeetMe with BT MeetMe Global Access that allows participants to dial-in to local telephone numbers (call charges are covered by the YPMTP programme). FIDIC also manages Skype accounts for participants wishing to use Internet telephony for the telephone calls to a BT MeetMe Global Access dial-in number (this reduces the cost considerable for FIDIC).

5. Skype Accounts
eFIDIC will establish Skype accounts for YPMTP11 participants who want the programme to pay for the internet call to the BT MeetMe Global Access dial-in telephone number used for the audio part of the Virtual Meeting Room sessions. Access to local or the international dial-in numbers by Internet is preferred as it reduces costs considerably.
To establish a Skype account for which FIDIC pays the charges, a participant must first create a Skype Name (e.g. for Windows) with the first name = "YPMTP11" and the family name = "<your family name>". Then send a message to fidic@fidic.org giving the Skype Name.
