Michigan Capital Area Chapter of the Project Management Institute (PMI) works to become a mature and vibrant resource center ... dedicated to retool, recharge, and re-energize our Project Management Professional Community. Armed with lots of innovation, ideas, and expertise, we are bringing to your fingertips, the best Global tools, documentation, and expertise that PMI has to offer. We invested in a new office space right in the heart of Lansing, our Capital city, to be closer to membership and to become an active part of the business community. Some major innovations this year include extending Outreach Programs created to involve academic, nonprofit, business, and service communities, and a new outreach program designed to provide help and support for military veterans looking to join the workforce with applicable credentials! Our newly revised Professional Development Programs will offer training roadmaps in all areas of project management and certifications. Regular events now includes lunch talks, evening presentations, and webinars full of practical information and PDUs. Members can join Communities of Practice (CoP) relating to their expertise or interest where beginners, mid-career, and experienced project managers can meet, exchange, and learn from each other. read more
