Building a Professional Project Management Community How do you start building a PMO that is going to truly add value to an organisation and help it deliver even more successful projects? How can you build a project management community that collectively delivers? Through this presentation Peter Taylor will describe the foundations he has put in place at Kronos, a Workforce Management Solutions provider, to build a world-class project driven organisation.

Each professional development activity yields one PDU for one hour spent engaged in the activity. Some limitations apply and can be found in the Ways to Earn PDUs section that discusses PDU activities and associated policies. Fractions of PDUs may also be reported. The smallest increment of a PDU that can be reported is 0.25. This means that if you spent 15 minutes participating in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.25 PDU. If you spend 30 minutes in a qualifying PDU activity, you may report 0.50 PDU.
