Expert Seminars to Open PM Days'07 in Vienna

Three expert seminars have been scheduled to highlight the pre-programme of the PM Days’07 “PROJECTS & MANAGEMENT: From 9 to 5?” on Sunday, 6th May 2007 at the hotel "NH Danube City" (‘Wagramer Strasse 21, 1220 Vienna, Austria).

International top experts like Lynn Crawford, Roland Gareis, Martina Huemann, Mary McKinlay and Bernd Lauer offer the possibility for participants with advanced pm expertise to further develop their knowledge about programme and project portfolio management, management auditing of projects and programmes, and assessment centers in a project-oriented Company.

Learning about newest developments in project, programme and process management as well as networking in a group of experienced seminar participants are major advantages. The limited number of participants will guarantee an optimum learning experience and allow enough time to meet the individual needs of the participants.

Please draw your attention to the following expert seminars (to be held in English):

  • Programme Management and Project Portfolio Management by Roland Gareis
  • Management Auditing of Projects and Programmes by Martina Huemann and Mary McKinlay
  • Assessment Center in the Project-oriented Company by Lynn Crawford and Bernd Lauer

For further information regarding the expert seminars and the PM Days’07 itself please visit www.pmtage.at or contact the project manager Ms. Claudia Fehrerberger at claudia.fehrerberger@rgc.at
