About the Program
Intense competition, limited resources, demanding customers, and a tight labor market make project management more complex than ever.
This series is ideal if you are: a director of project management, finance manager, project manager, process improvement manager, project management office manager, project team member, or candidate for the project management professional (PMP) accreditation. Utilizing the expertise of partner organizations Project Professionals, LLC and Orion Development Group, the Project Management Certificate series consists of three programs:
- Project Management Fundamentals (three one-day modules)
- Managing Project Teams (two-day seminar)

While seminars may also be taken individually, without obligation, all of the above must be completed to earn the Certificate.
