PMP Exam Preparation Course

Mark your calendars, May 13th-17th! PMI Portland will be offering a PMP Exam Course this coming Spring! The Project Management Professional (PMP) exam is a globally recognized certification that tests a candidate’s ability to manage people, processes, and business priorities of a professional project.

To obtain PMP certification, a project manager must meet certain requirements and then pass a 180-question exam. The PMP is highly sought after across industries. Wherever there are projects, there is a need for qualified and skilled project management professionals. As the world gets more connected and industries grow and expand, this demand is only set to increase

This course will help you sail over those hurdles and get to the next level as a Project Professional!

Register now and get early bird pricing before April 15th!

Professional Development Webinars

Join us on April 29th for our webinar: 'There is Nothing Wrong with Being Agile, or is Everything Wrong with Being Agile?'

“Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow. The important thing is not to stop questioning.” This is a famous saying by world-renowned scientist Albert Einstein. The most important lessons you get from this saying are LEARN, LIVE and HOPE. Never stop LEARNING, apply those learnings, LIVE your life to the fullest and finally HOPE these learnings help you to grow. The world would have been so much different if we stopped learning or we didn’t grow.

The world would have been so much different if we would have never adopted agile. Right? However, the real question is why one should adopt agile. Varun Anand learned this heartfelt lesson personally when his ordinary + boring predictive project manager life forced him to embrace agile. In this self-analyzing, personal talk, he talks about different agile techniques and how you can adopt them in not just your professional life but also in your day-to-day life.
