Diploma Commercial Practice (DCP) - Commercial Practice is a day-long event aimed at exploring what research is going on within commercial practice as distinct from academia or 'alternative' practices, political activism and so forth.The symposium will explore issues like; sharing what research is currently being carried out within practices, discussing how this is enacted and managed within a commercial setting, reviewing the value of such research work for the practice and other bodies, commercial sensitivities, the potential for links with external research bodies, funding sources and how to manage research within the context of other work, clients' and collaborators' responses to carrying out the research, conflicts of interest, and mutuality with academia.
