We all tackle ethical dilemmas. Wrong decisions can break careers. Which are the key challenges faced? What are some likely solutions? Where can we find effective tools? Who can apply these and why? Dry, theoretical discussions don't help. Join us for lively, light conversations to learn, share and grow!

Hello Everyone!
I wanted to share a LinkedIn post with you today. It is not my post, but I proudly reposted it for my LinkedIn connections. It affects every project management professional who holds or aspires to earn the PMP® certification.
What happened to Samer can happen to any of us, and like him, we should follow PMI's Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct..
"A few days ago, I received a message via WhatsApp from an unauthorized provider in Saudi Arabia claiming they could give me a PMP® certificate without taking the official exam, for just $450 USD!"

Well done. Samer Musallam Dahdal. PMP-PMI

To uphold exam integrity, I strongly advocate discontinuing all online exams. Conducting assessments exclusively at authorized testing centers will help prevent misconduct and ensure fairness for all certification candidates. Thank you, Stelian, for sharing this timely piece.
