So, You Want to Be a Project Manager? Free ABPMX® Open House
So, You Want to Be a Project Manager?
A Free Project Management Open House hosted by ABPMX®
Have you ever thought about becoming a Project Manager but weren't quite sure where to start?
Maybe you've heard about project management but don't really know what Project Managers do.
Or perhaps you're already planning events, organising people, managing deadlines and making things happen without realising you're using project management skills!
If any of this sounds familiar, this session is for you.
Join us for a FREE, relaxed and practical introduction to the world of project management.
No complicated jargon, or previous experience required; just an opportunity to learn, ask questions and discover what's possible.
What will we talk about?
What project management really is and what Project Managers actually do.
The transferable skills you may already have.
How to get started without a formal project management background.
Different career paths and opportunities in project management.
Qualifications such as PRINCE2® and PMP®, and whether you really need them to get started.
Practical steps you can take towards your first project management opportunity.
Your questions, answered live!
Who is this for?
Whether you're a student, graduate, career changer, working professional, someone returning to work or simply curious about project management, you're welcome.
You don't need a particular qualification or job title to join us.
