APM - Association For Project Management

In some of latest weblog articles, I talked about the PMI (Project Management Institute), its PMBOK (Project Mangement Body of Nkowledge) and its chapter in Barcelona.

In this article I want to notice you about another project management association, the APM (www. apm.org.uk).

APM is the largest independent professional body of its kind in Europe. They have over 13,500 individual and 300 corporate members throughout the UK and abroad. Their aim is to develop and promote project management across all sectors of industry and beyond.

APM is a membership organisation developing the art and science of project management and promotes use of the Body of Knowledge (fifty-two knowledge areas required to manage any successful project)through qualifications, accredited training, research, publications and events.

They have formal relationships with diferent organisations, including

• International Project Management Association (IPMA)
  
• Project Management Institute (PMI)

In its web, APM offers differents materials and documents to download from their Resources page.

I recommend you the "visit".
