At the Direction 2001 conference held by the BOSS Federation this weekend, the Institute of European Business Suppliers (IEBS) was relaunched as the BOSS Institute for Learning and Development – BILD.
The change of name is to link the learning and development arm into the parent organisation and to reintroduce a new set of initiatives developed specifically around the office products industry. New initiatives available from July under the BILD banner include:
- An Office Supplies Industry Foundation Certificate, free with initial registration;
- A newly compiled product knowledge encyclopaedia giving comprehensive and unbranded product information at £49.50 + VAT;
- Membership benefits including special personal finance and travel insurance packages, in addition to discounts from a major travel company.
BILD is targeting individuals rather than companies and registration costs only £50 + VAT per year with a £15 initial registration fee. BILD will be available from July and more information can be obtained from the BOSS Federation on 020 7637 7692.
