Given the limited industry options provided on the PMI website, what category do my fellow Innovation & Environmental Remediation Project Managers place themselves within?

Greetings. I've worked in multiple industries as a PM and until now, they've all been at least marginally captured by the PMI website's drop-down menu of industries. Since I've been working on innovating in the environmental remediation space, I've been selecting "other" when asked. Any suggestions? Can PMI add "Environmental" to the industry drop-down?

Interesting question. If you don't select other, what else would you select from the drop down menu?

Kimberly, if I am not mistaken, I think Chad is referring to his PMI Profile at the ".org" site, and the list of industries listed there that you have to chose one from so it appears on your profile.
