It has been about 3 months since I started actively using projectmanagement.com. While I read articles & blogs, and checkout webinars & templates, I currently spend most of my time answering questions on PMCentral and reading others' responses. I learn as much, if not more, than I contribute.
How do you use projectmanagement.com? What has been your favorite thing to do? Saving Changes...

I'm a bit newer than you and am still trying to figure out how to get value from it. I will say it is a nice addition to the PMI membership. The other times I have been a member all I really used was the magazines and after a while they just collected dust. I'm finding the discussion boards to be the most interesting as well and I have watched a couple webinars. Other than that I haven't used much. It feels like it's missing something but I can't quite put my finger on what it is yet. I think I might just be struggling with how the site is organized. Curious to see what others have to say.

Hi Samuel,
I love the PM.com, it offers a great sharing from all the practitioner around the globe.It don't have any gap or barrier between all of us. You ask from Malaysia, your other friends advice you from U.S, UK and middle east. I love this kind of website and truly provide and enhance my knowledge in project management.
My advice for those member PM.com, you should fully utilize the platform. Saving Changes...
I first got hooked on the archived webinars. Now that I've satisfied my certifications' PDU requirements, I've been spending a lot of time on the discussions.
I've also started exploring how to contribute more formerly to the community: blog, templates, and soon a webinar. I will probably try my hand at articles as well. Saving Changes...

I have started my journey six months back and during the initial stages I used to browse the discussions to understand others experiences. Suddenly one day I realized why can't I share my experiences and it may help somebody and this website has given me that confidence.
Though I am still in the nascent stages of contribution, I will try to share whatever I know relevant to the discussion and trying to improve on that. Saving Changes...

Hi Samuel
I have also recently started using pm.com and this whole platform has brought light to a wider scope of professionals. I think that aside from the templates and various knowledge enhancement tools, this very platform where one can ask questions to a wide range of PM experts is really the main reason i use this platform. More often than not, very insightful lessons are learnt each time i use it.
I am so glad i can be part of such a community. Saving Changes...
I have started exploring this site since April 2016 and am finding it very useful, being a novice. I find that this site provides a great platform for getting in touch with experienced professionals worldwide, get their views, ideas, guidance, etc. and networking.
There are a lot of others resources available .. like webinars (for gaining PDUs), great articles, blogs, etc
There are lots more to come in future...
I feel proud to be a member of this site. Saving Changes...
