The Society is a voluntary, democratic organization of Project
Management Professionals (PMP®s) in the
Greater Vancouver area, who are dedicated to the achievement of their common
purposes in the profession through mutual support, co-operation, and collective
effort.
The purposes of the Society, acting within its local area, are:
-
To advocate and to promote the practice of project management as a
profession.
-
To comment upon matters affecting the public interest in which the
practice of project management is a factor.
-
To organize and to conduct professional development events for
professional practitioners of project management.
The basic principle which informs all of the activities and actions
of
the Society is that the peer group of professional practitioners in its
community is an authoritative source of knowledge, arbiter of disputes, and
judge of ethical professional conduct, in all matters involving the management
of projects.
The PMP® designation is a credential awarded to qualified individuals
by
the
Project Management Institute
, whose international headquarters are in Four Corners, PA, USA.
