Honoured to be part of the event that believes in giving back to community while promoting project management.
As a speaker, I had a great experience working with the team. I always felt supported and appreciated. This was my first hybrid presentation across different continents and I’m looking forward to doing many more. Thanks, PMI Melbourne volunteer team for making this experience a memorable one!!
Intense workshops helped to expand project management skills.
Grateful to be of service to a worthy cause.
All expectations were met and learned some project management skills.
Sufficient to say, that over many years, the Chapter has developed a significant presence as a professional organisation to support project stakeholders.
Hybrid events are difficult to pull off in the best of times but this one was beautifully hosted by the PMI Melbourne Chapter. The event was set up in such a way that all participants could share their stories, some good jokes, and learn a thing or two. The ongoing support provided by the PMI volunteers in the lead up, during, and post the event made everything look so easy. I am sure that everyone that joined online and onsite had as much fun as I did in presenting the session. Well done to the team of volunteers at the PMI Melbourne Chapter for making this magic happen – and thank you for having me!
I believe that the Chapter has changed its focus to cater for new and emerging project professionals.
