PMI Kick-Off Course
From the The Big Time Blog
by Rami Kaibni
Managing any project successfully is all about Team Work combined with years of Accrued Expertise. It is an asset to have an educational background that compliments your field of expertise but "education" without "experience" is like an "arrow" without a "bow." You can never make a perfect shot with a temporary arrow unless you have a permanent bow called: "Life's Experience." Remember, you can never teach experience but you can always teach from experience.

Using PMI Standards

As a Career Coach and Professional Developement Mentor, I believe growth comes from within so I continiously keep working on myself by exploring new ideas, taking courses and certifications for areas that I feel are valuable.
Agile and Waterfall Kick-Off is a very valuable and interesting initiative by the Project Management Institute that will provide you with the basic concepts, tools and techniques you’ll need to get started managing projects in both Waterfall and Agile environments:
- It’s a FREE short 45-minute course.
- Upon completion of the course, you will earn two PMI Badges. No exam, no expiry.
- It's suitable for Project Managers (Formal and Informal), PMO's, L&D Leaders.
I highly recommend everyone to take advantage of this opportunity. Feel free to reach out to me for the Registration Link.
How can Kick-Off help you and your team ?
The majority of projects in the working world are managed by informal project managers who struggle to meet organizational goals on time and on budget. Being a free digital learning tool, Kickoff is the fastest and easiest way to for you and your team to get started:
- Get smarter with foundational knowledge that’s critical for project success.
- Put learnings into practice immediately—so you can move your project forward.
- Learn how to rally and inspire a team you can trust to get the job done.
- Gain new skills that can make you a more confident professional leader
