In the lead up to this month's newsletter focused on higher education in project management, we've touched off debates & healthy discussions, tapping into educated opinion throughout the project management community. All of it revolves around one emerging area within project management – project management degrees. Tying in with our newest portal, the Higher Education Directory, we've collected viewpoints from the Arras People LinkedIn Group page; responses from our poll at Survey Monkey; and viewpoints at the Association for Project Management discussion we've originated. It's all in the name of giving project management practitioners, job seekers, students, educators and hiring personnel alike the ability to provide input and feeling for what degrees in project management mean for the marketplace. We'll interpret our discoveries of what you've told us, and determine what project management courses in the UK's universities will mean to the profession as a whole. We're also back with another edition of Question of the Month, and we gear our readers toward one of our Frequently Asked Questions. In our other running feature, Lindsay Scott again reviews a new book: this time, she tackles Peter Parkes' NLP for Project Managers, with an accompanying announcement of a planned course Parkes will deliver in November. A 10% discount on the course is available to Tipoffs readers - visit www.NLP4PM.com with the code "Arras" to learn more about the course itself and what it can bring to you.
