The IBMS sent their newsletter
for members today. You can read it by clicking
here.
It made me think. Though not
about that which CPD should make me think. The whole point of CPD is that I
learn something new, or find that what I thought was good practice isn’t.
Over the years I’ve come to
realise that I *don’t* get this from my professional body. Again the
IBMS newsletter was all about what people have done and who is on what
committee. This month the IBMS sent out all sorts of awards, and as I have said
many times before, singling one out for praise cheapens the efforts of
thousands who have done the same but gone unrecognized.
My first on-line rant about
this subject was nearly eighteen years ago – click here and look up 13
September 2006, and I ranted along similar lines on 4 January 2007.
My thoughts right now are
that it costs me sixteen quid a month to be a member of the IBMS and now that
they don’t offer professional indemnity insurance I really have to ask what I
get for my money.
There’s reflection, eh?
