Our new logo, by Glowflox Enterprises

The serif typeface hearkens back to our heritage as a 40 year old institute

The buildings skyline motif pays homage to our bias towards the construction industry as a major contributor to development.

The ‘Light Beach’ shade of brown represent the earth, the first physical element to be worked on in a development activity such as building.

Members new certificates (Available now!) will now show this logo. The old logo has been retained on our seal.

We have some new images picking up our standard boards and colours. They are available from our Publications page on this site.

A belated Happy New year to fellow professionals and members of BIDP.

Did you have a Professional Development Plan for this year in your Resolutions?
Did you Assess and Evaluate your competence and identify an area of potential improvement (There is always one)?

You could perhaps introspect as follows:
1. What area do I really need to improve performance?
2. How does this link with my other objectives?
3. What skills do I need to LEARN to achieve this?
4. What will I do to achieve this?
5. What resources and support will I need to acchieve this?
6. Ho will I evaluate success?

The BIDP annual general meeting is scheduled for 18h00 tomorrow, 5th September at the President Hotel, Main Mall.

Botswana and the other members of SADC are in a process of trying to negotiate opening up the fields of construction and related professional services. This is an interesting one for Botswana, given the coming into effect of the numerous acts controlling the development professions in Botswana. A general background link is in a sponsored article here. Or should we keep blocking the trade routes inside Africa?

The details are given on the flier below.
