Topaz Inviting Recruitment Companies To Nominate Payroll Staff For Bursary Fund05/10/2006 09:31:00Topaz has linked up with the IPP to provide a lucky winner with the bursary fund prize to cover the course fees for the two year Diploma in Payroll Management course at the prevailing rates of the IPP. Candidates may be initially nominated by their employer directly, by colleagues or by self nomination, but in all cases with the approval of their employer. All nominations, which can be submitted until the Softworld event in February 2007, will be collated by Topaz before being put forward to the IPP for final selection. A winner will be announced at the end of April 2007 ahead of the two-year course, which is scheduled to begin in September 2007. “Topaz is the only company offering this kind of bursary and it reflects the fact that we are not just interested in supplying software, but we have an interest in the people that use it,” says Keith Brown, Topaz EMS (Employee Management System) Business Development Manager. “We are delighted to be teaming up with the IPP to provide the bursary funding commitment to an individual for two years to help further their career in the payroll industry. It’s a fantastic opportunity for the winning individual to develop without the financial implications for either the individual or their employer.” The IPP, which is the leading provider of qualifications, training and consultancy for payroll and pensions, has just changed its name having previously been known as the Institute of Payroll and Pensions Management (IPPM). “Increasing the number of fully qualified payroll professionals is key to raising the status of the function amongst business leaders and so we are delighted that the bursary fund has been launched,” said Maurice Cheng, IPP CEO.
