Encore Presentation, originally aired Nov. 10, 2009 -- Every federal IT professional has seen the "PMP" (Project Management Professional) after someone's name.

This week, we interview Gregory Balestrero, the CEO of the organization that bestows that prestigious designation, the PMI (Project Management Institute).

Gregory will answer questions about the nature of the PMI, and the range of programs available.

The Obama administration is forcing software developers to adapt a more agile methodology—can earning the PMP assist? What exactly is required for the PMP? What is the future of project management? What kind of a career path does an PMP have in the federal government?

You will learn that, of the 250 local chapters, the Washington D.C. chapter is the largest and most active!
