The Hong Kong Management Association is proud to announce that a record

of the Association since 1990, this unique award gives public recognition
of achievements in training and development to companies and human resource
professionals in Hong Kong. After the Shortlisting Interview (held on 18
February), a total of 19 training programmes were shortlisted for the next
stage of the competition. They were invited to submit a 5-page summary of
their training progammes.

Committee of The Hong Kong Management Association, noted with pleasure the
