Lessons in Project Management

There are many project management classes that teach processes, techniques and best practices. However, few classes explore the practical application of project management techniques to solve real world problems.

This class is an opportunity to learn project management skills in a collaborative group environment. Situational scenarios are presented based on the Lessons in Project Management book co-authored by Tom and Jeff Mochal. From the 50 project management topics available you can pick up to 16 lessons for a typical two-day class. The topics represent every step in the TenStep methodology, from Defining the Work and Building the Schedule to Managing Quality and Managing Metrics. For each topic, a story is introduced that highlights a real-world scenario which is then read and discussed by student teams of 4-5 people. Afterwards, the teams compare notes and come up with a consensus on the best way (or ways) to respond to each situation. This leads to a great collaborative solution that each attendee can apply to similar situations in the future.

Greetings from USAirways flight 2742. My window seat Is pretty tight, but I'm managing to punch this out on my iPad. We're flying back from Charlotte NC where we just spent the past two days with other PMI leaders from nearby chapters. Twice a year PMI national hosts conferences intended for component leaders (chapters as well as communities of practice) to get together and share best practices and solutions to common problems. This conference, known as the Region 5 Conference, was hosted by the Metrolina chapter (about 700 members).

Notice of PMIHR By-Laws Review

Dear PMI Hampton Roads Chapter Members,

It is an association management standard and recommended practice to update the Chapter's corporation by-laws every 3 years. The Chapter has worked with PMI Global to bring our by-laws up to current best practices. The revised by-laws have been approved by the Board and PMI Global Operations, and we are ready to submit these changes before membership for approval. The current by-laws and the proposed by-laws are available here for members review for 45 days. The major changes made in compliance with the latest PMI by-laws template were as follows, with other more minor changes throughout the document:

Changed overall format to comply with PMI Global standards.

  1. Article IV – Officers: Updated to clarify eligibility to serve as an officer.
  2. Article V – Board of Directors: Updated to clarify eligibility to serve on the board of directors.
  3. Article VI – Nominations and Elections: Updated to clarify the elections process.

The Chapter is partnering with VoteNet, a PMI recommended vendor, to conduct electronic voting of the proposed changes. Voting will open on January 1, 2012.

Questions or comments regarding the proposed changes to the By-laws should be sent to: This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
