The Professional Development Project focuses on the non-technical side of today’s IT environment.  Whether one wants to admit it or not, the business side and non-technical professional side of the IT environment is as critical as the technical side.  Further more, today’s IT environment is both mentally and physically demanding which takes a significant toll on the IT professional.  The Project presents series of sessions that designed to address four specific areas of interest:

Professional Skills - Covers the professional skills required to deal with the business aspects of the IT environment and business as a whole.

Leadership Skills - Covers the skills required to be an effective manager of IT professionals and/or an effective technical leader regardless of position.

Personal Skills - Covers the basic skills providing a foundation for building leadership and professional skills as well as technical skills.

Survival Skills - Covers the skills and methods assisting the IT professional to survive the pace and stresses of our demanding IT environment.
