Calling all novice and experienced non-certified project managers! Becoming a certified Project Management Professional (PMP) can be a wise career decision, but is it right for you?

Whether you’re dabbling with the idea or already in the midst of exam prep, attend this panel discussion to learn more about why you should—or shouldn’t!—get certified. This multi-location panel will have a lively discussion around their journeys to certification, including:

  1. benefits (opens doors, hireability, standardized language)
  2. challenges in getting and maintaining certification (pre-requisites, expenses, and time commitments)
  3. tips and tricks to prepare for the exam
  4. Transference of theory to effective project management practices

There will be time throughout the session for audience Q & A.

Attendees should have an interest in project management, and may have completed some projects.
