We are pleased to announce the success of our fifth SADI (Skilling Australian Defence Industry) grant application.

Through this application, 16 ICCPM SME Members received funding to support the professional development of 67 project professionals in complex project leadership. SADI-funded participants will join participants from Defence and defence primes in a rich learning environment where they can apply the tools and frameworks covered and develop a shared understanding of how to respond to complexity in defence projects.

Access to the ICCPM SADI application is a benefit of the ICCPM SME and Organisation Membership. ICCPM prepares the grant application on behalf of its SME Members, administers the contract and completes all reporting obligations, thus greatly reducing the administrative burden of applying for the grant.

Congratulations to the following SMEs:

“As a Veteran and Australian-owned consultancy in our 5th year of operation, this training opportunity is a valuable investment for our business and consultants, and more centrally our clients. We welcome the knowledge, skills, and competencies that are before us so we can continue to live beyond success, prevail for others, bring meaningful change and create unique solutions.”

– Tam Edwards,
Operations Manager, GreenRoom Strategic
