Fissure News

PMI MN awarded long time Fissure associate Mike Wold the prestigious W. Bruce Sandison Presidents Award. The award is presented yearly to a member not presently serving on the chapter board, who has shown unparallel devotion of their time in quality efforts building professionalism in project management, both inside and outside the PMI organization. Congratulations Mike, thank you for all you do!!

 

Seattle WA, Central IL & Sioux Falls S.D. will be joining the ranks of Chicago, Raleigh & Minneapolis as sites for Fissure public classes in 2006. The new locations will offer our Basic and Advanced Project Management Simulation Workshops and our Project Management Professional (PMP) Prep course. Keep an eye on our web site for the upcoming schedules for these new locations.

 

Universities are requesting Fissure Simulations to add to their existing courseware. A number of colleges including The Citadel, Brigham Young & George Mason University have requested information on how they can use the simple Fissure project management simulation as part of their curriculum. Our simple project management simulation is a shorter and less complex version then the ones used in our workshops. The professors are very interested in giving their students hands on experiences that reflect a "real world" application of their studies.

 

A Joint certification program between a major university and Fissure has been under construction for a little over a year. The new partnership should be announced before the end of 2005.
