PMI Alaska Lunch & Learn at the Alaska State Capitol
Ever wondered what happens after a capital budget is approved? Once funding is secured for initiatives such as building a road, renovating a school, or implementing a new technology system, project managers step in to turn ideas into reality. They transform concepts into structured plans, coordinate teams, manage resources, and ensure that projects are delivered on time, on budget, and within scope.
Join the PMI Alaska Chapter for a special Lunch & Learn at the Alaska State Capitol, sponsored by Representative Calvin Schrage, to learn how project management principles are applied across industries—from Fortune 100 companies to government and nonprofit organizations.
During this session, participants will:
- Learn the fundamentals of Project Management (PM101)
- Discover the tools, frameworks, and processes used by project managers worldwide
- Understand how effective project management supports successful public investments
- Meet members of the PMI Alaska Chapter Board and learn more about the local PM community
Lunch will be provided.
