tmgroup’s 2016 “Because Your Worth it” CPD programme has been running successfully across the summer, with well-attended events in Birmingham, Bristol and (most recently) Manchester.

Through a series of expert-led presentations, these structured CPD sessions have been finding solutions to some of the commercial business challenges facing the industry, including:

• Do clients really just care about the price?
• How do I convert more telephone prospects into clients?
• How do I guarantee that my clients will refer my services?

These CPD sessions have also opened the debate to attendees; and provided valuable opportunities for peer-led discussion about the trials and errors of different initiatives.

Portsmouth is your last chance this year to find out why your firm really is worth it

With our 2016 CPD programme now drawing to a close, our Portsmouth event on Thursday 6th October will be your last chance this year to find out how to increase your fees and still deliver a competitive service offering!

TM Group has announced a programme of regional conveyancing CPD sessions around the UK, featuring a range of expert industry speakers. 

Entitled ‘Driving & Adapting to Change’, the series of five regional events showcases content from TM Group’s national conveyancing conference of the same name, that took place in April 2015 at RIBA in central London. (see video below)

The conference in April formed part of TM Group’s continuing commitment to conveyancers’ professional development and was particularly well received, with more than 96% of delegates stating that they would recommend the training to a friend or colleague.

Now being brought to conveyancers in five different regions, each event focuses on the small changes that conveyancers can make that will have a big impact on their businesses. The expert guest speakers are charged with providing three useful tips in quick-fire sessions designed to help time-poor conveyancers get the most out of their CPD sessions.

Comprising two different approaches to managing the constantly-evolving property transaction, the format also helps shed light onto the inherent risks and opportunities in a conveyance.

The first session seeks to inform conveyancers how they can adapt to changes in legislation, continue to satisfy the ever increasing demands of the consumer and remain responsive to new risks as they present themselves.

In the second session, the speakers will show conveyancers how they can take a more proactive approach to change by embracing new ideas and technology to get ahead of the competition.

This session will include talks on reputation management, new business conversion, and attracting and retaining the best conveyancing talent.

One of the unique aspects of these events is that each one will feature interactive roundtables to be held at the end of both sessions. The roundtables offer delegates the chance to build upon the speakers’ talks, gaining a better understanding of the issues and having a platform to exchange views and experiences with their peers.

Expert speakers from across the property industry include: Ray Fox (Bottom Line Consultancy), Nicky Stevenson (Property Academy), Victor Olowe (Winzest Consulting), Chris Harris (Today's Conveyancer), Clare Yates (Lifetime Legal) and more.

Last week, TM Group's national CPD conference for conveyancers, Driving & Adapting to Change, sought to identify small changes that could add up to big differences for law firms across the country.

Hosted at RIBA in central London, the day was separated into 3 sessions. The first focused on changes that conveyancers need to adapt to in order to remain competitive whilst the second session revealed ways in which forward-thinking conveyancers could drive change within their firm to get ahead of the competition.

Finally, the day was rounded off with a panel discussion on the use of technology in the legal profession. Throughout the day, delegates took to social media to spread the word and comment on the sessions as they happened.
