In the webinar, we will explain what PM² is and why it is  relevant and what the PM²  GROUP is, and why we have such high regard for PM². The goal of the PM²  in enabling European project management according to PM² .

The PM² GROUP is a consortium, meaning that it is  a collaboration between members who have a shared set of values, and who have common goals.

PM² group\’s goal
PM² group\’s goal is to facilitate the implementation of the PM² project management methodology in public and private projects as intended by the Center of Excellence in PM² of the European Commission.

The PM² group has set out three main activity areas to achieve this goal:

1. Auditing the supported public certification and trainer accreditation program, based on the EU commission\’s guidelines.

2. Promoting the adoption of PM² in European public and private organizations

3. Facilitate access to PM² learning materials and certification for individuals who want to increase their employability.

Certification Council PM²

The PM² group is governed by the Certification Council, the Council is an independent panel of PM² and certification experts each representing different industries and interests. Council members are selected from member organizations of the PM² GROUP based on their experience, network and contributions to PM².
