CIPP and NAIP announce Terry Dillingham’s retirement CIPP news
IT IS with sadness that CIPP and NAIP (National Academy of Indian Payroll) have announced that the very valued Terry Dillingham is to retire from his unstinting supporting roles in both CIPP and NAIP. Terry has provided many years of loyal service, mostly behind the scenes, but always providing the steady voice of reason combining his expertise with humour and understanding. Terry has over forty years’ experience as a teacher, lecturer and manager in the UK further and higher education sector. He started his career at Worcester College of Technology (WCT) as a lecturer and helped the college grow significantly as the Vice President and Head of HR and Business Development. Terry also managed the funding and quality assurance aspects of Edexcel/ CIPP payroll qualification at Diploma and Certificate level throughout the UK, delivered in a partnership between the CIPP and WCT. More recently Terry chaired the
committee of interested parties on the reforming of payroll national vocational qualifications with excellent results. Lindsay Melvin, CIPP’s Chief executive
officer, commented: “I’ve known Terry both professionally and personally over the years and have always been impressed by his unwavering dedication to the payroll profession. He will be missed and we all wish him and wife Rosemary a wonderful retirement.” CIPP (then the IPPM) first started
working with Terry back in 1995, when he was project head at WCT for their partnership. It was here that he took the bold and brave step to approve the IPPM project, which at the time was seen as being ‘high risk’ due to the complex nature of the payroll study material and its delivery by distance learning. Terry on retirement of WCT some seven years back then joined FHE and worked together to cement the Industry-recognised Foundation Degree in Payroll and was a key contributor in making it a success. Nayaz Qazi, Chairman of NAIP said,
“When I decided to form NAIP Terry was an obvious choice for Board member and he has since provided invaluable support in developing the Indian qualification and maintenance of standards. He was well received by the Indian payroll community and the gap he leaves will be hard to fill.” Terry lives in Worcester with wife Rosemary and plans to spend more time with their grandchildren and continue to enjoy his choral activities in the town.
