I want to thank you all for the wealth of information you all have deposited and will continue to deposit on this site.
Its so amazing that professionals from all works of life come here to share their experiences as regards this field of project management.
I have benefitted a lot reading through posts in this forum.
I'll like to solicit for your help. Project management is still a relatively new field in Nigeria. My school happens to be one of the very few schools offeing Project Management as a field of study.
I'm in my final year now and need to write a Research project. I am very convinced about contributing to the growth of Project Management in Nigeria since I see it is needed in all spheres of industries which will in effect boost the economy of the nation and the lives of its people in general.
I therefore need research materials on project management from which I read through and pick my topic from and make necessary research. I know there are lots of materials on-line which I have also personally seen but I don't want to bore you all with the difficulties associated with studying here.
I want you to please help me out with various books about project management with which I can glean from to conribute postively to the growth of my nation.
Joseph,
I admire your enthusiasm about project management and how you could contribute to its growth in Nigeria.
I am a Nigerian and will like to support your efforts. The first advice would be for you to obtain your professional certification as a project manager from the Project Management Institute (please see the PMI website, www.pmi.org) for the requirements. Saving Changes...
Dear Mr. Ajayi, thank you so much sir for your reply to my post. Presently, I am 500-level student of Lagos State University. By God's grace, I am inspired to write on the topic: "Project Management In Nigeria: The Way Forward" for my project reasearch work. I so much believe that if project management is properly entrenched in industries and the economy in our great country, there will be a lot of positive changes. One of the reasons that inspired my research is that for now, there is no official PM association in Nigeria. Though I know that some content providers do offer project management courses in Nigeria, yet, I feel enough is not been done to help this discipline gain its right status in Nigeria. I therefore want to be a pioneer in ensuring that all that needs be done is done. I know it is not going to be easy, yet, I am ready to pay the price. Sir, are you based in Nigeria? If yes, how can I get in contact with you. My e-mail is [email protected]. Thank you sir. Saving Changes...
