August 2020 - Military Roundtable

Anyone can attend the Military Round Table, even if you do not have military experience. The purpose of the Military Round Table is to connect the military community of the Bay Area who have interest in Project Management (PM) certifications and careers with PM professionals and military veteran advocates within the chapter. We define the “military community” as those who presently serve on active, guard, and reserve duty, veterans, retired and military spouses of all military branches, including the Coast Guard, and Department of Defense. The Military Round Table is typically conducted in a webinar format on the second Wednesday of each month at 7:00 pm. Once a quarter, the Military Round Table is held in a simultaneous in-person and webinar format.

Military roundtables are informal, monthly networking and educational opportunities for military service members, military veterans and their families in the Bay Area who are interested in pursuing a career in Project Management. The goal of the meeting is to introduce the military community to project management professionals in the chapter and to provide information about the project management profession and related work in the Bay Area. The military community and anyone who supports our transitioning military service members are welcome to attend the roundtable.

PDUs: Military Roundtable meetings qualify for a maximum of 1.0 PDU under Category A. Please be advised that PMPs are required to provide evidence supporting their reported learning project. This may include a log of discussions with notes and dates.
