October Roundtable

It is particularly important for Project Managers to maintain and improve their project management knowledge and skills to stay competitive in the market. The PMP credential is a critical component, but in recent years the project management discipline has moved towards more flexible and dynamic project management methodologies. In addition to the traditional waterfall approach several new emerging methodologies are now in high demand. Training and credentialing in these methodologies is becoming highly sought after among Project Management Professionals and is especially relevant in today's economic climate.

The Project Management Institute, with members in 135 countries, is the world's foremost authority for the project management profession. PMI sets industry standards, conducts research, and provides education and certification opportunities designed to strengthen and further establish the profession. Our chapter proudly serves all the local and national professionals in the space of Project Management. We currently have thousands of members - over half of whom hold PMI’s esteemed PMP certification - and represent nearly 400 unique companies across the globe.

Our PMI Chapter welcomes proposals from passionate speakers interested in sharing their experiences, knowledge and expertise on such topics as general business and strategy, leadership, project management, and technical or industry-specific specialties. Our Professional Development events provide professional development units (PDUs) of educational information necessary for those attendees maintaining certification designations. Speakers are also eligible to claim PDUs for their creation and delivery of the presentation material.
