DESCRIPTION
GPPMA is now an officially registered association in the U.A.E. and ready to roll out our programs to our members. Over the last six months, GPPMA have continuously strived to provide services to our professional community, while the registration was under process. During this past period, we could not take on members but are now ready to enroll members and progress towards a bright professional future.
During this event, our Chairman as well as the Board of Directors of GPPMA, will present the road map of the association activities as well as planned future programs for the year. We will also start enrolling members – both individuals and corporate. We are also keen to hear your opinions and suggestions on this day.
Following the GPPMA board presentation we will have a guest speaker from SUKAD, Ms. Nada Chaban, who will deliver a valuable presentation on the various professional certifications that exist in Project Management and the trends behind them.
