Harrisburg University Project Management Series

 

More Training Opportunites:

Harrisburg University’s upcoming Project Management series may be of interest to you. Please consider participating in this event, and sharing this announcement with colleagues and staff.

 

Harrisburg University, the Keystone Chapter of Project Management Institute and the Technology Council of Central Pennsylvania have partnered to offer Beyond Technology Project Management to Project Leadership. The series targets mid-level and upper-level managers who are called upon to take a leadership role in technology projects. This interactive, project-based series moves beyond good process in project management to strategic project (and project portfolio) management that specifically links activities and goals to the vision and mission of the organization within a framework of change management and team building.

 

The series is comprised of three half-day sessions which include a high-level keynote speaker followed by facilitated work groups. Participants are invited to bring real projects and project-related issues from their workplace as a focus for the work group sessions during the second half of each session. Harrisburg University is a Global Registered Education Provider for PMI, and PMP certified participants will be awarded PDUs through the PMI Keystone Chapter.

 

(NOTE: The first of the three sessions has already started. However, there is still time to participate in the remaining two sessions)
