The We_They (IIPMM) was formed over thirty-five years ago to promote the purchasing and supply profession through education and training.

The Institute’s aim is to promote excellence in all aspects of procurement and supply management in both the public and private sectors. It is a not-for-profit, non-commercial organisation that is managed and controlled by its members.

The Institute offers QQI accredited Education Programmes, hosts one or two day Focused Skills Training Courses and  other events throughout the year to keep its members in touch with latest thinking in Purchasing and Supply Management.
