Hi all:

A few years ago, I was looking for an education opportunity that would be more targeted towards advanced project management, strategy, and growth. None of that PM 101 stuff!

When I did online investigation, I found that Stanford University offered a Certification! Wow!

So, over the course of 1.5 years, I took a mix of online and in-person courses at the Stanford Campus.

The knowledge shared was amazing, it was focused on strategy, entrepreneurship, financial understanding - many great skills for aspiring leaders. I call it a mini-MBA in Project Management - it was that good!

Each class is 20 hours, and is good for 20 PDUs.

Have any of you gone through this training? Care to share your experience?

Hi Annette, I have actually considered this program at Stanford; but was not sure of the value. I have taken other courses through Stanford online; which were outstanding. But these were FREE. Thank you for sharing your experience. I wonder how this program compares with getting an MPM. I did not realize it was a almost a 2 year commitment. I can only imagine the experiences shared by your classmates / cohort. The SAPM instructor bios are very impressive!
