Projects@Work - Cadence Gives $100K to PMI Educational Foundation

Cadence Management Corp., a provider of project management training, consulting services and tools, has made a $100,000 contribution to the Project Management Institute Educational Foundation to support project management education programs for primary and secondary school teachers and administrators. The money will make it possible for educators to attend project management training courses that will provide them with new capabilities to enhance their classroom instruction and on-the-job management skills.

“The primary purpose of the PMI Educational Foundation is to promote economic, educational, cultural and social advancement through project management by making it more readily available to those who want to learn about the profession and the practice of project management,” said Greg Balestrero, chief operating officer of PMI Educational Foundation and CEO of PMI. “It’s through the generosity of Cadence and other donors that we are able to provide opportunities for those who otherwise may not be able to take advantage of project management educational opportunities.”

“In order for educators to successfully adopt project learning teaching methods in the classroom, it is necessary for them to have a working knowledge of project management themselves,” said John R.
