Professional Development-PMISWIC

Mentorship Program

 PMI-SWIC offers this unique one-to-one professional mentoring program to support those who are seeking to obtain a PMI credential, those whose promotion or new job require PM skills and knowledge that haven’t been used before or for a long time, or those who are new to the area and want help finding opportunities and people to assist them in achieving their professional goals at their own pace.  In other words, this program matches those seeking a Mentor with a PMI-SWIC member who is an experienced PMI certified project manager and has volunteered to share his/her knowledge and skills to help assure the advancement of others in our chapter through a planned study program supplemented with suggested study materials, courses, classes, networking events, and other opportunities that will target a Mentee’s personal needs to meet their professional development goals.

This program ensures an experience of learning and development for both parties by providing the Mentee valuable study and professional advice as well as new perspectives. It provides both Mentee and Mentor an opportunity to create a unique and lasting relationship where Mentors gain from this professional partnering of role model, coach, and advisor to better pursue their own professional goals.
