Aston Centre for Project Management Practice

Just popped up on the web, and neighbours of ours! According to their website, their principle aim is to develop real time, real life solutions that actually work for project managers and to use their experiences to guide the future development of practice. They aim to do this by:

• bridging gaps between both research and knowledge and knowledge and practice
• being practitioner focused – identifying solutions that work
• developing a collaborative multi-disciplinary project management community of practice
• helping companies build stronger bridges

This seems very interesting. Let's hope that they are successful. Hopefully we'll meet up soon, and I'll pop some more info onto this blog.
