There is still a short time left to join as a founding member of an INRPM Standing Committee. After this round, the initial committees will be in place.
If you would like to help shape how INRPM develops, please apply before 19 May 2026.

The session focuses on practical questions about building a career as a research project or programme manager – including roles and career paths, trainings and credentials, and how to think about skills, experience, and formal qualifications together.

Several new INRPM Networking Café sessions are now scheduled.

These are informal online meetups where you can:
• bring a current challenge and hear how others approach it
• swap concrete tips, tools, and templates
• meet colleagues working in similar roles in very different contexts

Each café is unique and shaped by the participants.

To give all regions a fair chance to join, we use a rotating schedule. All upcoming cafés – with dates, times, and joining details – are listed on the event page.

For all INRPM events (webinars, cafés, etc.), we publish the link to join on the event page about 24 hours before the scheduled start.

If you are ever unsure how to connect, the individual event page is the place to look.

You can now subscribe to INRPM events so you are notified when new activities are added. 

On each event page, you will also find “add to calendar” links, so you can easily bring the session into your own calendar system.

Our website and the Tools & Resources section have recently been reorganised and refreshed.

Before creating something from scratch, you may find it useful to browse what is already there – there might already be a template, checklist, or example you can adapt to your own context.

At the same time, we are sure that, collectively, there is a goldmine of practical materials spread across our community. The resource library will only be as good as its contributions: your contribution may help someone, and in return, you could benefit from what others have shared.

Contributions can be simple, for example:
• a quick reference or checklist you actually use
• an Excel sheet that helps you structure projects or reporting
• a link to an online tool you find genuinely useful (ideally free; we are not allowing promotion of expensive commercial services)

If you have something that makes your own work easier, there is a good chance it will help others too.

We are excited to share that our new INRPM logo and visual identity are now in place. This means we are moving away from the temporary visual solution we used at launch and into a more consistent look and feel.

You will start to see the new logo and design across the website, in event materials, and in future communications as we complete the transition.

If you think INRPM could be relevant for colleagues or your wider network, we would be very grateful if you would:
• share this update with RPMs and research support colleagues at your institution and beyond
• invite colleagues to follow and engage with INRPM on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/9382066/
• pass on RPM‑relevant events, courses, and resources to us so we can help highlight them to the community:  community@researchpm.eu
• Visit our website: https://internationalrpm.org/

We want INRPM to be a place where research project managers can both find and contribute opportunities!
