Website Upgrade Incoming - we're working on a new look (and speed!) standby while we finalise the project

Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Also check out the Association for Project Management www.apm.org.uk they have a Planning Specific Interest Group. I know that they are ramping up their activity again and are holding a meeting in London on 28 March 2007.

The AACEi is probably the premiere planning organization there is. Their PSP (Planning & Scheduling Professional) certification was just certified by the CESB (an international certification body.) Their web address is http://www.aacei.org.

The PMI College of Scheduling is also interested in planning. Their web address is http://www.pmicos.org.

Lastly, there is a group called the Planning Engineers Organization (PEO) that is mainly the work of a single person. You can find their website at http://www.planningengineers.org.

Good luck!
