NEW BLOG: When to apply for the RTTP accreditation

In February 2020, I called upon the experience of PraxisAuril's global RTTPs to help me generate a clear guide to the accreditation: why to apply, when to apply, and resources to help you apply. This 'call' for support took the form of an online survey, sent to over 100 RTTPs.

The short survey generated a wealth of data and, having processed this along with views from the PraxisAuril RTTPs, I emerged with a changed perception of the accreditation.

The next deadline to apply for RTTP is Thursday 16 April 2020

The #KEAwards2020 deadline extended

In response to COVID-19, the KE Awards submission deadline has been extended to April 17 2020.

All finalists and winners will be featured on the KE Awards website and promoted through the various PraxisAuril communication channels. The winners will then be announced via a digital ceremony (date to be confirmed). This will not only give recognition but also a platform to connect with peers and increase visibility within the KE community.

The promotion doesn’t end there either. Several of the 2019 KE Awards winners were invited to speak at various conferences throughout 2019 and into 2020, and continue to showcase their work in front of new audiences.
