APM Awards Open for Entries

The Association for Project Management (APM) Awards, sponsored by RPC UK Ltd, are back for 2020, a celebration of the very best individuals, projects and programmes the profession has to offer. APM, the profession’s only chartered body, is calling on the project profession to put themselves, colleague and their projects forward for an award across 16 categories. The deadline for award entries is Monday 15 June via APM’s online portal.

From aspiring young project managers to complex and transformational projects and programmes, both in the UK and internationally, last year’s Awards saw a record number of projects entering with the standard getting higher year on year. The 2019 Overall Project of the Year Award went to North Cumbria University Hospitals Trust & Cumbria Partnership NHS Foundation Trust, for its new maternity information system – BadgerNet electronic personal health records (ePHR).
