A commentary on the UK business 20th Century usage of 21st Century control techniques: what has changed over the last 50 years?
However on the commercial training side, the demands of the market have provided them with some changes to their schedule.
'Earned Value' - is a subject much in demand these days, but how many people can honestly say they understand it, Doug Ovenden, NDO Consultants Commercial Director has used Earned Value techniques extensively in a variety of engineering projects during his time in the defence industry.
Doug says 'Though Earned Value techniques have been around for some time, British Industry has been slow to embrace their use, in this respect we are lagging well behind the USA and other overseas regions'........
'Our one day seminar clearly explains how "Earned Value" disciplines direct the use of fully integrated, dynamic control systems and concentrate operational and management thoughts and actions'.
The addition of this Earned Value seminar fits well alongside the Risk Analysis and Commercial Awareness Seminars already in the NDO Consultants, training schedule.
Another key change has been the reconfiguring the Sales and Marketing 2 Day Seminar originally planned for May 2008.
Neill Ovenden, NDO Managing Director says: 'We decided it would provide a more flexible approach to run the Sales and the Marketing seminars as stand-alone one day events and to clarity their bias towards technical sales.
However, as they will be run on consecutive days they can also be attended as a 2 day course, for those with a foot in both camps'.
The new dates of the 'Technical Sales' and the 'Planning and Execution of Marketing Strategy' seminars are the 10 and 11 September respectively.
