Chapter councils, state practice committees and individuals are asked to nominate members to the Acumen Content Review Panel which was established at National Council’s last meeting.

The Review Panel, comprising five member representatives, will provide advice to the Institute on managing Acumen content.

The panel will be selected by the Acumen Content Review Working Group, chaired by Bryan Miller. The Panel will be tasked with reviewing existing Acumen content, identifying any gaps, locating appropriate authors and approving the development of new content. National and state practice committees will have an opportunity to comment on draft content via a shared wiki, whereupon the Review Panel will evaluate the feedback and incorporate as appropriate before publication. National Council will be asked to approve membership of the Panel at its December meeting, following which the Panel will convene.

Nominations can be sent to carmel.mccormack@architecture.com.au and must be received by Thursday 10 October. Nominations are asked to address the following questions:

• What practice experience do you have that would make you a suitable member of the Acumen Content Review Panel?

• What skills and expertise would you bring to the panel?

• Are you able to commit approximately 8 hours per month to carry out the work of the panel?
