IMPORTANT: IPM-DAY 2012 POSTPONED DUE TO HURRICANE SANDY

Dear cedric, IIL's International Project Management Day Program Postponed to NOVEMBER 15, 2012.

IIL's thoughts are with everyone who has been affected by Sandy. As a result of the storm there are widespread issues with Internet interconnectivity. Therefore, IIL has decided to postpone its International Project Management Day program for two weeks - until 15 November, 2012. Please join us then for this free virtual event in recognition of the outstanding work done by project managers all over the world. If questions, please contact Yvelina Ngon at +1-917-822-8005.

Where to pass the PMP exam?

The most convenient way is to use the PROMETRIC centers. You can access to a paper based exam, if you are issues for travelling or obtaining a visa, in case your country doesn't host such a center.
