Mentoring

Mentoring

Gain Knowledge / Make a Positive Impact in Someone’s Life!

Welcome to the PMI-Madison Mentoring Program! 

The Mentoring Program pairs experienced PMP-certified project managers with individuals who are new to the project management profession, or looking to expand their knowledge in a specific area. So you probably have asked yourself – "Why does the PMI-Madison chapter have a mentorship program? What is in it for me as a member, or how does it impact our community?“

Mentorship Overview

Seeking Mentors

Welcome to the PMI-Madison Mentoring Program!  The PMI-Madison chapter is currently seeking Mentors and Mentees!

The primary reason why our chapter has a mentorship program is to share our knowledge and experiences with each other, so we can be the best project managers we can be. Our successful projects are a positive reflection on our chapter.

PMI Hits the Top of the List

Global Knowledge posted an article noting the top 18 certifications worth having. Global Knowledge is a business providing learning services and professional development solutions, so they are not really driven to pick one certification over the other, but are vested in knowing certifications and their value. I would think the only motivating factor to do anything that may not be true is to have only certifications that they perform training for.

In my opinion this list is pretty legit list by GK. Disclaimer, this article is my personal opinion and not the PMI Madison chapters opinion. Anyways, go check it out. One of the things you will see is the PMP^® certification is on top. Whats third? CAPM^® another PMI certification.
