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. 

Based in Sydney, Australia, we provide training, assessment and consulting services to ensure your project and program teams  work to international standards and best practices, whatever your industry. 

We currently run regular public and in-house courses in Sydney, 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 also work closely with the Centre for Continuing Education of the University of Sydney, Australia, which offers our courses in project management to the general public within the Sydney CBD.

We have always aligned our courses to world best practices, but our endorsement by the world's largest project management professional society is your guarantee of our professionalism.
