The programme that keeps on giving.
Not only does your team acquire valuable knowledge and confidence. You will also gain a range of outputs that can be used again and again.
During each stage, delegates produce a range of outputs, including presentations, lessons, and case studies. Each of which will have been thoroughly evaluated during the programme. These are owned by you and can be reused by the team or wider business.
“As a team, we developed the shared knowledgebase and improved our practical skills to collaboratively communicate the value of information management within Mace and to our customers.”
Dr Marzia Bolpagni, Mace
Flexible and cost-effective.
Scheduling time away from projects and getting your team in the same room at the same time can be challenging and expensive.
We know that work must come first. That’s why we developed the IM BOOTCAMP programme to be delivered entirely online. Giving individuals the flexibility to work around their busy schedules – no matter where they are in the world.
“The online format worked really well, plus it saved us a lot of cash by the team not having to stay hotels and travelling etc.”
Harry Parnell, Balfour Beatty

ISO 19650 Curriculum
Approximately 10 hours per delegate
To start the programme, each delegate completes a selection of self-led courses within the ISO 19650 curriculum. This ensures that everyone who attends the IM BOOTCAMP (Stage 3) have an equal level of understanding of the ISO 19650 series and the associated information management activities.
preparation
Approximately 8 hours per delegate
Delegates work in pairs to prepare two sessions. A 15 minute presentation on the value of managing information effectively and a 20 min lesson relating to the information management process. Each pairing will deliver the sessions during Stage 3. After which, they will receive constructive feedback from their peers and the instructor.
IM Bootcamp
Approximately 24 hours per delegate
As a group, delegates attend six instructor-led online sessions, known as the IM BOOTCAMP. Each session will deepen an individual’s knowledge of information management and increase their confidence in communicating effectively in a business context. Delegates will either be actively participating or actively listening so that they can learn together.
Final Project
Approximately 18 hours per delegate
Delegates work in pairs to research and reflect upon the approach taken to managing information on one of the company’s completed appointments. Upon completion, a report on the findings is produced and evaluated by Operam. The report can then be used as case studies, and lessons learnt for future appointments.

deepen their knowledge of information management within a business context;
become more effective in communicating with a wide variety of stakeholders;
gain increased confidence in presenting technical information;
become more aware of the risks and impact of not managing information effectively; and
become more effective in dealing with negativity and resistance to change.
In short, the more they put
into the programme,
the more they will get out of it!
