TOPIC: "Changing Trends in Chapter Technology/PDD Development"

Technology Summary: PMI SAC has experienced quite a shakeup within its website and how things are distributed as well as managed in this new platform. Take a journey with Jarvis Ewing and John Crilly as they demonstrate our new chapter technology and how to navigate it. This session will include both demonstrations and walkthroughs within the SAC site and PMI's global site and will be a lesson you wouldn't want to miss. 

PDD Development Summary: Shontoria will emphasize the crucial role of face-to-face meetings in solidifying the partnership between Project Management Institute (PMI) South Alabama Chapter and prestigious institutions such as ASU, Troy in Troy, AL, and AUM's (Auburn University Montgomery) Business School. These meetings serve as the linchpin for showcasing PMI's value proposition, fostering direct engagement, and harmonizing efforts. Through these personal interactions, we're not only streamlining a powerful collaboration, but also fine-tuning the logistics of our upcoming yearly Project Management Professional Development (PDD) program on Sept 15th.
