Announcement: Second FREE Consultancy Day

RIBA Enterprises is now accepting seat reservations for its next FREE Consultancy Day, taking place in Manchester on 29 September 2009. Topics covered will be online marketing, the specification process and CPD. If you missed the last event BOOK NOW, as places really will go fast.

This will be the second of our free Consultancy Days. The first took place in London in June and proved an immediate hit. Demand was such that people began registering within minutes of details being announced. In anticipation of similar levels of interest please note that places will not be allocated to anyone who attended the first event.

The day's agenda will follow a similar format to June's event, with seven specialist speakers followed by the opportunity to have a one-to-one consultancy session with the expert of your choice.

Feedback from the first Consultancy Day:

"I found the e-marketing section very useful – worth the time and effort alone."
"The 'What really works' CPD session was really helpful."
"A day well organised and, above all, very informative."
