Benchmark 100 is EFD's new initiative to support our members participating in the Disability Standard 2012. 

We’re calling on 100 of our most committed members to join Benchmark 100 by booking the EFD evaluation of your Disability Standard assessment today. 

We want all our members to be able to benefit from the opportunities the Disability Standard opens up for you.

Which is why we are implementing a programme of discounts. The level of discount is dependent on the month in which you decide to submit your assessment for EFD evaluation. 

April = 30%

May = 20%

June = 10%

Once you have signed up for the EFD evaluation, you will have access to a number of tools that have been specially designed to provide you with all you need.

Benchmark 100 benefits include:  

•   Mentoring

Access support from our expert team at one of our new mentoring surgeries for Benchmark 100 members. The dates for these are:

• Wednesday 25 April 2012, 9:00-12:00.
• Thursday 10 May 2012, 14:00-17:00.

Another benefit of being a Benchmark 100 member is having the chance to attend training and networking events.

EFD's Legal Director Bela Gor is running two Legal masterclasses that will be free to Benchmark 100 members. 

The next one is on May 24th 10:00 - 16:00 at:

Slaughter and May in London.

If you haven’t been to any of EFD’s disability training before this is the ideal opportunity.

The training is extremely popular, so you will need to confirm your attendance as soon as possible.

To book your free Legal Masterclass place, please email stuart.moore@efd.org.uk or phone 020 403 3020.

EFD has also launched several new social media channels to help support our members with all things Disability Standard.

We now have a dedicated twitter feed @disabilitystand, a Linkedin group (Disability Standard network) and a Google+ page with its very own dedicated circle.

Having these new platforms presents our members with a convenient way to stay in touch with all things Disability Standard and engage with not only your peers, but also the EFD team. 

So if you haven’t already signed up for the Disability Standard, now is the ideal time to benchmark your commitment and see how you measure up.
