Hi
I obtained my PMP certificate in Feb 2016, I am interested in practical learning.
Increasing my practical skills would help me progress and reach my goal to be proficient project manager!

My question is what could be the available free resources, opportunities, support and recommendation to achieve my goal?

Work with you local PMI Chapter. There may be volunteer activities that would give you the experience you are looking for. Additionally, through networking with the other members you may be able to find the support you need and be made aware of opportunities.

If you are not yet a member of a local chapter, check here - https://www.pmi.org/membership/chapters/north-america

There is one in Houston - https://www.pmi.org/membership/chapters/no...houston-chapter

Read lots of articles, visit websites about project management. Look for case studies that are familiar to your own area of expertise (eg engineering or IT). Many project managers share their experiences and I believe that when you see something familiar to you, it's easier to learn. Then you can read about the most diverse types of projects and get better because you'll be able to make an analogy between them.
