CEO Chat Dear Member


When this news bulletin is released to members, I will be in Brisbane co-hosting the IIMS two-day seminar, an event I am much looking forward to. It is a while since I was last in Australia and IIMS has fundamentally changed over that time. The number of delegates is encouraging and I am looking forward to catching up with some of those I know as well as many more who I don’t!


The following week sees IIMS in Singapore at Hotel Jen, Tanglin for a one-day Institute seminar on 8th August backed by a one day eCMID Accredited Vessel Inspector seminar the previous day. These events are a valuable opportunity to catch up with head office news, to network with colleagues and other members and to hear presentations from those with expertise to share. There is still time to reserve you place in Singapore as a real time or online only delegate. See for details at https://bit.ly/2kL1iQf.


Since announcing the crowdfunding opportunity for members to support the purchase of Murrills House as the Institute’s new permanent home just a month ago, I have been delighted at the initial flurry of support. With online and direct donations, we have already raised over £10,000. A big thank you to those who have made a donation already. It is truly appreciated.
