Topic:  “PM’ing with Agile Teams”

Presenter:  Leslie Lowman, Senior Agile Release Manager of AvidXchange, Inc.

Come join us at our new location to discuss how traditional Project Managers work with Agile teams. We will take a high level look at what an Agile team is, how they work, and the shift from project teams. The metrics that Agile teams use and how they track their progress is slightly different – let’s spend some time talking about those metrics and how you can use them to watch the health of your project. Hope to see you there

Community Chapter Meeting 

As a means of helping chapter and local community members who are certified as a Project Management Professional (PMP®) satisfy the continuing education requirements for re-certification, PMI Metrolina Chapter arranges its monthly meeting schedule to allow a 1 hour PDU training session to be incorporated into its normal meeting.

Topics presented during these sessions are designed to not only satisfy the PDU requirement for re-certifying as a PMP, but to also provide wide appeal to people involved in project management regardless of whether or not they are certified PMPs. The 1-hour sessions meet the educational requirements to qualify for 1 PDU credits for maintaining PMP® certification or to meet the requirement for attending 35 hours of formal project management education prior to applying to sit for the PMP® exam.

The sessions are open to all.
