“The U.S. demand for project practitioners is expanding by more than 12 percent, resulting in almost 6.2 million jobs in 2020, according to PMI’s 2013 Talent Gap Report.” (January 2015 PM Network)
As the profession continues to gain recognition and the demand for the skill sets of project managers grows, only the well-equipped, talented, connected and knowledgeable project managers will be in the best positions to advance and enrich their professional careers. The Project Management Institute (PMI®) and its PMI Columbus, GA Chapter can play vital roles in preparing YOU for those opportunities.
