About the Presentation
Are You a Qualified PM?
Employing qualified Project/Program Managers (PM) is a significant requirement recognized across many Federal agencies. These are vastly important jobs and are often extremely satisfying to those PMs skilled enough to be selected. Unfortunately, the definitions still vary by agency for term “qualified PM”. Mr. Tom Bishop will walk through a few definitions from government publications and help PM’s prepare for a job interview with a sel-evaluation form using an example of IT PM requirements.
