Project Managers Network is a Registered Education Provider for the Project Management Institute, and our courses are endorsed by the Australian Institute of Project Management.  Members of those professional bodies can obtain training and professional development credit for any of our courses.

We also run regular in-house courses in Sydney and other Australian cities, and offer our courses throughout the Pacific Rim, including Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand and China in association with local companies or as requested by global organisations.

We have always aligned our courses to world best practices, but our endorsement by the PMI, the world's largest project management professional society, and the Australian Institute of Project Management, is your guarantee of our professionalism.  Through our endorsements, attendees can obtain PDUs and CPD points to maintain their accreditations with the US and Australian Institutes.

Training For Organisations

You can download brochures for each of our courses after reviewing the above summary 

All our courses are fully aligned with the US Project Management Institute's PMBOK™ Guide as well as the relevant levels of Australia's National Competency Standard for Project Management (NCSPM).

Each of these courses is offered in-house to groups ranging in size from 6 to 16 attendees.  We provide comprehensive workbooks, a case study and sample solutions to many team activities that take your staff through the entire range of skills required to manage projects competently. 

We can also provide assessment services to assist your project managers gain accreditation with the Australian Institute of Project Management or mentoring to prepare for the Project Management  Institute's PMP^® exam.  In association with other accredited training organisations (RTOs), we can conduct assessments to help candidates obtain a government recognised Certificate IV or Diploma in project management.

Training For Individuals

We also cater to individuals by offering our major project management courses to the general public in Sydney, Australia, through the University of Sydney's Centre for Continuing Education, with whom we have worked for the past 10 years. 

The University provides an efficient way in which you can register for our regular two day course, Project Management Essentials, and our advanced 3 day course, Project Management - the Complete Guide, which is ideal for those preparing for accreditation with the PMI or AIPM.   The University also offers our Microsoft Project, Stakeholder Management, Project Risk Management and Making the Business Case workshops for those requiring more specialised skills.

Refer to the Sydney University CCE web site (www.cce.usyd.edu.au) and select the Business and Management option from their main menu.  You will find our course  training schedule, fees and enrolment details listed under the categories of Project Management (MS Project, project management and business case courses) and Leadership and Organisational Development (Stakeholder Management).

Please note that all bookings and cancellations are handled exclusively by the University.  Courses offered by the University are exactly the same as those offered by us in-house and are conducted by our company's principals or our experienced associates.  PMI members can receive PDUs by requesting a course code from their presenter.
