 Your Support Makes It Possible

The Project Management Institute (PMI) is a not-for-profit professional association which establishes professional standards for project management, and provides seminars, educational programs and professional certifications. The PMI Southern Maryland (PMI SoMD) Chapter’s vision is to serve as a dynamic, leading edge organization of dedicated project management professionals committed to serving the Southern Maryland business and educational communities. PMI SoMD is a 501(c) (6) organization.

Our objective in hosting a Full-Day Professional Development Day (PDD) is to provide a high-quality, high-value offering to the PMI SoMD community.  Last year’s PDD Sold Out with 150 attendees representing a geographically distributed, diverse, and dynamic collection of project management professionals from Calvert, Charles, Prince George’s and St. Mary’s counties as well as Northern Virginia and Washington D.C.

Sponsors are an integral part of our ability to meet our PDD objectives. Our commitment to our sponsors is like our PDD participants: a high-quality, high-value return on your investment.
