A nationwide bid to expand the successful adoption of UK town centre management to a wider range of places includes the implementation of an online training academy provided by York-based, MyKnowledgeMap (MKM).
Part of AGORA, a £2.7m project part-funded by the European Social Fund and led by Manchester Metropolitan University Business School and the Association of Town Centre Management, the Institute of Place Management (IPM) is a new professional institute tasked with developing and supporting the creation of sustainable formal structures of place management and responsible for establishing professional, internationally-recognised standards among all those involved in the management, development and marketing of places.
In development for implementation on the IPM web site at www.placemanagement.org, the e-Academy supports the management of internal courses on centre management. The system enables project players to communicate, find information, and organise complex administrative and auditing tasks.
IPM UK membership launches in July 2007; in Australia in September, and globally in January 2008.
