Welcome to our annual open house! All day long, in celebration of #GivingTuesday, and in collaboration with the Project Management Institute Educational Foundation (PMIEF), we are highlighting how you can use project management to give back.
We are thrilled to open up our community today to all project professionals around the world to continue the conversation around making a difference through the use of project management. We have a recorded webinar, a LIVE webinar (open to all), and plenty of articles, blogs, and discussions focused on how people just like you are utilizing their project management skills to create lasting change in their communities.
Find out what content we have in store for you today by downloading the PM for Social Good® Open House Program Guide! You can also find a listing of today's content below:
But wait...there's MORE!
TODAY ONLY: For all of those who download the program guide on Tuesday, 28 November 2017 as part of your participation in the Open House, you will receive a special badge for your ProjectManagement.com profile!

We hope that you become inspired to give back to your community and make a difference, no matter how big or how small. In the spirit of celebration and togetherness today's content is open to anyone and everyone so invite your friends and colleagues to join in on the fun!
Help us celebrate #GivingTuesday with the PMIEF and enjoy the day!

Darn! Missed registering. Full house!
Looks like a great agenda. I must find time to watch the recorded webinar.
Thanks for putting this together!

I made a commitment last year to join the PMIef at the Leadership Society level after realizing that the unique work they do to broaden awareness of our profession, the support they provide to teachers interested in promoting our profession in schools, the doors they open for people needing the right skills to succeed, and the hope they give to survivors of disasters and people of need, isn't being provided by anyone else. It is up to all of us, as project management practitioners and professionals, to shape the future of project management and to give back to the profession that has given so much to each of us. Please...take this opportunity to get engaged in this noble cause. If you can't give financially, get involved at your Chapter level in a social project or email someone at the PMIef and tell them you'd like to volunteer your talents! If you can give, please know that your money is well-spent and directed at the most pressing of problems facing our world.

I've already downloaded the Program Guide and tried to register for the live webinar but it is already full. Just like Mike, will try to watch it on-demand.
I think 1000 capacity was too less for such a huge audience willing to view the live webinar
