22 Professional Development Units - PMI

Best Practices for Small and Plant Projects is a 3-day training course that focuses on capital project planning and execution in the context of small and plant-based capital projects. Organizations spend between 30 to 65 percent of their capital budgets on small projects (less than US $10 million). IPA research has found that these small projects are frequently less successful than the larger projects executed by the same company. These small and plant projects are a mix of maintenance, regulatory, and revenue-generating projects. Both central project groups and plant-based project groups execute these small projects. This program is registered with the Project Management Institute (PMI), allowing attendees to easily claim 22 Professional Development Units (PDUs) upon completion of the course.
