An opportunity to earn PDUs

 

Henry Ford Health System (HFHS) PMO coordinates a Lunch and Learn program to promote Project Management Awareness. We are currently seeking guest speakers to join us in this effort. As this is a low burden and low time commitment request, we hope you or someone from your organization would like to help in this valuable program.

 

Below you'll find background information and schedule which is sent to a potential audience of 30-40 Project Managers. We will be extending the schedule thru 2005. Please contact Raghu Boda (raghuboda@hotmail.com) 248-844-3005 for scheduling.

 

Thank you in advance,

Jack C. Garrison, PMP, GSEC, MSA
