The Project Management Professional (PMP)® is the most important globally-recognized and independently validated credential for project managers, perfect if you have demonstrated experience and competence in leading project teams. However, it is also considered as one of the most difficult certifications one can obtain; it requires well-sound study plan, self-commitment and resilience. Let alone, the advance English in which PMBoK is written, making PMBoK a “heavy-duty” reading and may lead to a risk of misinterpretation of the meaning (Project Management Body of Knowledge, aka “PMBoK” is the main resources of the PMP exam structure).

To assist PMP pursuant, PMI Indonesia Chapter has been running a program called PMP Study Group, assisting hundreds of PMP candidates to understand better about PMP, its procedure, its structure and have a chance to meet our mentor volunteers who shall assist you in study plan.

Challenge Your PM Talent!

Project Management Challenge (PMC) 2018 is developed from combination of three essential components, those are : ‘fun’, ‘learning by doing’, and ‘international exposure’. The concept of PMC 2018 is further improvement of those success story of five’s previous PMC. Due to the positive feedbacks of the previous events, it could be argued that the event’s concepts had been successfully tested in the previous events.

Project Management Challenge is to raise awareness of the importance of project management skill for University students. This competition also gives opportunitity for students to implement their project management concepts to a practical activity in order to gain more understanding in Project Management knowledge. In this event the student will directly involve in project management activity to gain the real capture of project management such as creating project plan, workshop, fieldtrip and  profesional mentoring.

Our Theme

Cities of the future: Resilience in Distruptive Era

In the long term, resilience is possible only if society reduces greenhouse gas emissions and avoids the worst impacts of climate change. So, strengthening a community’s resilience requires efforts to:

• Reduce the greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change;
• Plan for the changes that already are under way or anticipated;
• Foster social cohesion and inclusion.

“We define urban resilience as the capacity of a community to anticipate, plan for, and mitigate the risks—and seize the opportunities—associated with environmental and social change”, Kresge Foundation.

Resilience calls on us to rethink the urban systems that supply our energy, transportation, food, water, and housing. that community can build their cities to be resilient, to be better prepared for, to withstand, to transform, and to grow in the face of these shocks and stress. And through the same investments, cities not only become future-proof, they become better places to live and work right now.

Inspired by the Rockfeller Foundation who has been  initiated a program of 100 Resilient Cities since 2013, the Project Management Challenge 2018 is to create a project plan proposal  producing a product, service, result, or even a combination of two (PMBOK definition of Project)
