Event:

The 16th Public (Free) Seminar on “Project Management Practices in the Caribbean” (PM16) – 6 December 2025.

This event was held at the University of the West Indies, Lecture Room 1, Block 13, Max Richards Building, Faculty of Engineering, St Augustine Campus, Trinidad and Tobago.

This event was a joint venture in collaboration with the Technology & Engineering Management Society and the Education Chapter Society of the IEEE Trinidad and Tobago Section, The IET T&T Local Network, SCIE and CAS-TT Chapter.

The purpose of this seminar is to facilitate awareness and use of best project management practices and related concepts, models and tools in both public and private sectors organisations. The discussion forum also extends to engineers’ professional development and their recognitions in Trinidad and Tobago and the
wider Caribbean. Invited speakers will share their project experiences and lessons, whereas a discussion forum will be held along with an information
session coordinated by IET LN TT and IEEE-tt.

It was a very successful event with over 80 persons attended. The lectures were well presented by our very own IET TT LN Chairman, Eng. Anthony Chadee as well as Past Chair of IET TT LN, Eng. Prof. Tagore Ramlal along with the other individuals from IEEE, UWI, CAS-TT and SCIE.

The seminar was well organised, with participants acknowledging its relevance and insightful presentations. Participants’ engagement and feedback also provide guidance for enhancing future events to the project management community in Trinidad and Tobago and the wider Caribbean.

We look forward to another successful event in the near future.

Message from Past Chair-IET Trinidad& Tobago Local Network-

Prof. Tagore Ramlal

As my tenure as Chair of the IET Trinidad and Tobago Local Network
comes to an end on December 31st, 2025, I extend my heartfelt thanks
to each of you for your support, collaboration, and dedication
throughout this journey.

Together, we have advanced the mission of the IET in Trinidad and
Tobago, fostering professional development, strengthening our
engineering community, and building bridges across institutions and
industries. None of these achievements would have been possible
without your commitment and enthusiasm.

I am especially humbled to have achieved the milestone of being the
first person to simultaneously serve as Chair of both the IET Trinidad
and Tobago Local Network and the IEEE Trinidad and Tobago Section.
This unique honor reflects not only my personal journey but also the
strength of our collective commitment to uniting professional
societies to benefit engineers across the region.

While my role as chair concludes, I remain committed to supporting the
continued growth and impact of our local network. I look forward to
seeing the IET Trinidad and Tobago flourish under new leadership in
the years ahead.

Thank you once again for your trust and partnership.

Dr. Tagore Ramlal
Immediate Past Chair, IET Trinidad and Tobago Local Network
