Earlier this term, IST’s Portfolio Management Group (PMG) launched a new professional development series called Project and Portfolio Management Community of Practice (PPM CoP). These unique sessions offer participants an opportunity to learn more about key aspects of project and portfolio management while tying in often overlooked and unexpected facets of this work, such as planning and prioritization, key performance measurement, emotional intelligence, mental health and stress management, policies and trends, and organizational change management.
Each presentation or workshop is followed by a period of networking, allowing participants the chance to connect, share experiences, and build the community that will help evolve project and portfolio management across campus.
No previous project or portfolio management experience is required.
Schedule of sessions
There are no sessions in July or August. PPM CoP sessions resume in September. Learn more at https://uwaterloo.ca/it-portfolio-management/events.
