What is a Chapter?
Project Management Institute (PMI) is one of the world's largest professional membership associations, with half a million members and credential holders in more than 185 countries. It is a not-for-profit organization that advances the project management profession through globally recognized standards and certifications, collaborative communities, an extensive research program, and professional development opportunities.
PMI members may choose to join a chapter, which provides members with a "network of expertise" in their local area. Chapters provide networking opportunities with peers from various organizations and industries working in the project management field. Chapters advance the mission and objectives of PMI by promoting project management professionalism within local businesses, universities and professional organizations in the chapter service area. Project management professionalism is enhanced through chapter activities, meetings and other educational programs.
