Welcome

Welcome to BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT,Isle of Man Section website. Our section was created on the 7th of July 2004 as an international section of the BCS on a par with other similar sections such as Belgium, Switzerland, Hong Kong, Jersey and Guernsey sections.

Our Section holds either a professional or social event each month from September to June. There may also be impromptu social events in July and August. Our events are normally open to non-members.

Our forthcoming events are published on our web site and if you happen to be on the Isle of Man at a time coinciding with an open event please join us. If you are a BCS member and regular visitor to the island or would like to register with the Section anyway, then please update your details held by the BCS.

Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Masterclass – 24th November

In a recent survey by the Association for Information and Image Management, 50 percent of UK organisations expect to be live on Microsoft SharePoint 2010 by the end of 2011.

Whilst many organisations are already successfully using the intranet and collaboration technology, more advanced features such as extranets, website templates with webparts, automated forms processing, business process workflow and records management are not nearly as widely deployed.

BMN are a Microsoft Gold Partner and specialists in all things SharePoint helping clients such as BP and KPMG to reshape their systems with significant cost savings and new business opportunities.

Qorus Technologies are developers of document assembly software installed at clients such as Vodafone, fund managers and retail chains.

Duncan Lawrie, private bankers, are part of Camelia PLC, an international group listed on the London Stock Exchange with over 75,000 employees.

The event will be held at the Claremont Hotel in Douglas, with doors opening at 5:30pm for a 6pm start.
