SUMMARY:Webinar: Managing Risk through Effective Communication and Documentation
DESCRIPTION:Please join us on Thursday\, May 26th for this wonderful educational program: \nManaging Risk through Effective Communication and Documentation \nGood communication can help ensure a project’s success\, while poor communication can lead to disputes and claims. Documentation creates the narrative of the project\, beginning with contract formation and negotiation\, flowing through kick-off meetings and project initiation\, and becoming very formal during the construction phase. This program reveals both pitfalls and best practices in communication and documentation throughout a project’s lifecycle. You’ll also gain an understanding of cautionary words\, examine a proven change-management model\, receive ready-to use project templates\, and learn how proactive communication and consistent documentation can help you manage risk and deliver successful projects. \nLearning Objectives\n1. Learn risk management fundamentals for design professionals and learn\, through real-life examples\, how poor documentation and breakdowns in communication can lead to disputes and claims\n2. Review documentation triggers in key areas throughout a project’s lifecycle and be able to establish a proactive project communication plan that can be tailored for varying projects\n3. Examine best practices for establishing a record-retention policy\, email communications\, sustainability and BIM documentation\, implementing a change management model\, and CA-phase documentation pitfalls\n4. Be able to create a library of project management templates to establish a consistent documentation management program within their practices \nPresented by: \nDiane Mika\nVice President\, Director of Risk Management Education\nDMika@BerkleyDP.com | (831) 293-6243 \nDiane has over 25 years of experience in A/E professional liability insurance\, focused on risk management and loss prevention education. She holds a bachelor of science degree in organizational behavior and is also a certified instructional designer.

Since 2014\, Diane has led the development of the award-winning BDP Risk® Learning Management System for Berkley Design Professional\, as well as the creation of risk management resources and education programs to help architects and engineers improve project management practices\, enhance business performance\, and reduce exposure to claims. \n \n

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Cyber Security for your Firm
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for this very timely and informative virtual session in two parts!  We will hear from expert presenters on how both risk management and I.T. knowledge can keep your firms safe from cyber attacks. \nAs a design professional\, you may ask yourself “Why does my firm need cyber insurance?” While you may think your firm is too small to be a target for cyber criminals\, the truth is that cyber criminals prey on small businesses because they are easy targets due to a lack of security controls in place—you just don’t hear about the numerous attacks on small businesses every day because it doesn’t make headlines. Maybe that is a good thing for small businesses as word of such an event could cause your clients to lose confidence in your firm. This webinar will discuss what you need to know as a design firm when it comes to cyber insurance and cyber risk management best practices. \nREGISTER HERE:  https://sdasandiego.ticketleap.com/webinar-cyber-security/ \nPresenters:  \nPaul Broussard\, Risk Advisor | CIC\, SBCS\, PWCA\, cyRM with Cavignac Insurance Brokers \n\nPaul Broussard has over 10 years of commercial insurance experience in the commercial insurance industry.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Introduction to R&D Tax Credits
DESCRIPTION:The R&D tax credit is for taxpayers that design\, develop\, or improve products\, processes\, techniques\, formulas\, or software. It’s calculated on the basis of increases in research activities and expenditures—and as a result\, it’s intended to reward companies that pursue innovation with increasing investment. \nIn this session\, Michael will discuss the R&D tax credit; more specifically\, what it is\, who can benefit and how it all works for those in the AEC industry. Real-life examples will be shown and explained\, as well a look into some of the smaller\, but important details about the credit.
