PMI Customer Care notice
As you may have heard or experienced first-hand, our Customer Care team is experiencing significantly higher contact volumes due to the dynamic nature and rapidly evolving situation globally. This is not unique to PMI as many service industries have been disrupted by COVID-19. In the month of May alone, we experienced our highest contact volumes in PMI history, and the volume does not show any sign of decreasing.
Please know we are working around the clock to respond to each inquiry, and we’re continuing to explore alternative ways we can address them. In the meantime, these are the actions we’ve already taken to help decrease the need for members to contact Customer Care.
- We’re updating our COVID-19 Update Page on an ongoing basis.
- We're waiving rescheduling fees for all certification exams until 1 October.
- We’re automatically extending all candidates’ exam eligibility until 18 January 2021.
- We've launched our new PMI Beta Bot, a 24/7 chat bot to answer your basic questions. Check it out on our Contact Us page.
- We’ve created the PMI Customer Care Alexa Skill so members and certification holders can link their PMI.org account to any Amazon Alexa-enabled device to ask Alexa: “What is my member (or certification) since date?” “What is my membership end date?” “When does my certification expire?” “How many PDUs do I have?” Try it today!
We ask for your patience and support in utilizing our Customer Care contact info so we can respond to each member and customer. If you have a question specific to chapter operations, please contact your chapter partner.

President's Message - September 2020
As the summer of 2020 draws to a close and I reflect back on the events of the year and how they have impacted each of us in our personal and professional lives, I am grateful and thankful for the dedicated members and volunteers who have been instrumental in keeping our chapter going. I hope all of you have taken the time to enjoy this nice summer weather and get recharged from “digital fatigue”.
I encourage you to stay engaged and connected via our website, social media, virtual CoPs, chapter meetings, and the many virtual professional development opportunities. We have our upcoming chapter elections in September, a virtual Professional Development Day in October, and our annual body meeting in November. Our website has increasingly become our new commons and town square. Our volunteers, team leads, directors, and extended board members are always looking for your feedback and new ideas on how best to serve you.
It is often said that out of adversity springs forth creativity and opportunity. Recalling what Jimmy Dean once said — “I can’t change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination” — let us find new and creative ways to stay connected, stay engaged with the Chapter, and help each other grow professionally and otherwise. Finally, I am humbled to be a part of a team of dedicated volunteers, leaders, directors, and board members, and would like to recognize their efforts and thank them for their continued dedication and support.
Yours sincerely
Yogi Muthuswamy
President, 2020

Oct 2020 Social Circle
The NCPMI Chapter cordially invites you to attend our Social event. This event is for our members as well as guest attendees who are considering joining a local PMI chapter. So join us for great conversation, games, prizes, complimentary appetizers and a cash bar.
Increase Your Versatility, the PMI-ACP Certification Prep Class, the Agile Class that Teaches Agile
The PMI-ACP course focuses on embracing and applying the Agile Manifesto — not a method, framework, or toolkit. You will, though, learn about Scrum, Kanban, eXtreme Programming, lean thinking, and other approaches.
The PMI-ACP global certification supports individuals in meeting the needs of organizations that rely on project practitioners to apply a diversity of methods to their project management — from predictive to hybrid to agile.
NOTE: This class will cover the 21 credit hours which is one of the key requirements for taking the PMI-ACP certification. In addition, students who have their PMP will gain 21 PDUs towards their PMP renewal.
Class Dates: October 3, 10, and 17, 2020
Price:
Member of NCPMI: $435
Non-Member: $495
Virtual Workshop Series presented by Apex Systems with Live Q & A: Taking Our Project Management Careers to the Next Level with David Barrett - Workshop 2
Abstract:
NCPMI in partnership with Apex System is offering a Virtual Workshop Series on Time Management and Communications for All Practitioners. This will be a live question and answer session and pre-work is requiredprior to event. The workshops will be free for NCPMI Members and hosted online via ZOOM.
Overview:
- The project management field out there is pretty crowded out there. It’s no longer enough to be just really good at what you do. You have to be more. It’s no longer build it on time, on scope and budget. You have to add value over and above the normal requirements of project managers.
- So how do we add value? How do we stand out in the crowd? How do we get recognized in this very crowded field? Our speaker will get us thinking about what we can do to innovate our careers and get to the next level.

Grow Your Skills
It is particularly important for Project Managers to maintain and improve their project management knowledge and skills to stay competitive in the market. PMP certification is a critical component. As, during the resent years, project management discipline took a step toward more flexible and dynamic project management methodologies, in addition to the traditional waterfall approach, several new emerging methodologies became in high demand. Thus, training and credentialing in these methodologies became highly sough after among Project Management professionals. It is especially relevant in today's economic climate.
