PM in the PM
Navigating today’s job market can be challenging—and you don’t have to do it alone. PM in the PM is a participant-driven professional development series bringing together project and program management professionals and community leaders navigating career transitions and job searches.
Decode the PMP Application: Translate Your Leadership into PMI Terms
Are you looking to secure your Project Management Professional (PMP)® certification, but finding it difficult to articulate your experience on the application? You are not alone. Translating command, operations, and logistics into PMI-approved terminology can feel like learning a whole new language.
PM in the AM (Westside PDX)
We're continuing our PM in the AM in Westside Portland this month and would love for you to join! We'll be talking about job search tactics as well as general PM best practices as well as having lots of opportunities for networking and growing your community.
Roundtable - Agile PM (Virtual)
The Agile PM Roundtable is a collaboration between PMI and AgilePDX. This virtual forum seeks to build connections between the Agile and Project Management communities and strives to create an inclusive environment for people with open and curious minds. This Roundtable alternates between speakers on Agile-related topics to a Lean Coffee style format facilitated by experienced Agile PM's and instructors.
The Roundtable typically meets the third Thursday each month. Meetings start at 7a and end promptly at 8a, and the meeting room usually opens 15 minutes before the official meeting start time to allow you to hang out and talk with colleagues. Please register at https://www.meetup.com/agilepdx-user-group-portland-metro/events/ and dial in from your device with your favorite early morning brew. A Zoom URL will be provided to confirmed attendees. Feel free to post questions to this meetup prior to the event on the MeetUp site.
We welcome divergent opinions and experience reports. Bring your challenges for feedback and support from the group.

Grow Your Skills
It is particularly important for Project Managers to maintain and improve their project management knowledge and skills to stay competitive in the market. PMP certification is a critical component. As, during the resent years, project management discipline took a step toward more flexible and dynamic project management methodologies, in addition to the traditional waterfall approach, several new emerging methodologies became in high demand. Thus, training and credentialing in these methodologies became highly sough after among Project Management professionals. It is especially relevant in today's economic climate.
