Hi Jason,

I'm struggling to find the link on Ning to the NSPCC donation page / site. Could you add the link to the main page again, or email it to me. The trampoline is currently on Ebay so as soon as it sells I'll be 'bouncing' over to the donations page and adding some wonga.

Cheers,
Martin

Hi Jason
Thanks for the message. I go on leave on Tuesday so will not be attending the next modules - I am picking them up in September. If you want to arrange a meeting ring me on Tuesday on 01270 686505 - if you can't manage that then ring Elaine Edwardson on 01270 686562 - she is my administrator and will know when I'm around. Thanks for your help I really enjoyed the first two days.
PS Should I be registering with the ILM?

Hello Jason

Thank you. I am not sure yet that CE will fund the full award - I think that is what the delay is but I will check with my line manager who I will next see on Friday and let you know. Amanda

IGP Feedback

... a virtual (garden) path towards becoming a better boss.

... a rare and unique approach to managing and nurturing people in the real world.

... IGP strips away the overgrown jungle of management jargon to reveal a gem of a training programme.

... some gardeners have green fingers and some managers are naturally gifted with people. For everyone else there's Ican Grow People - THE Managment Development Programme.

Building the Induction Greenhouse


Participants on a recent IGP Programme got all creative whilst linking effective Induction Programmes with Garden Greenhouses... to see more great photos and find out more about the Induction Greenhouse...
