The Development Project Management Institute (DPMI) is a professional certificate program providing participants with the latest project management tools as well as successful, time-tested facilitation skills during three-weeks of intense class. Participants include graduate students, young professionals, career-changers and international scholars. Although the program is centered on the UN Millennium Development Goals and taught by renowned development professionals, skills obtained during DPMI are beneficial to participants from a wide-range of career tracks.
DPMI uses a cross-sector approach, taking best practices from the development field and combining these tools with successful concepts drawn from the private sector. Students gain skills in guiding a development project from its inception to its implementation. This involves careful study of strategy development, project monitoring to help ensure sustainable benefits, a key focus of development projects around the world. Students also learn and use mind-mapping software programs to lay-out a solid development strategy.
This year DPMI is offered from May 14-June 1 on the campus of the Monterey Institute of International Studies and from May 28-June 15 in Washington, D.C. at the Marvin Conference Center. Participants may also choose to directly apply skills developed through an optional Ecuador practicum from June 18-22, 2007. DPMI tuition for three-week program in Monterey or Washington, D.C. is $2,500. Ecuador practicum tuition is $300 (practicum only open to DPMI alumni). Additional DPMI sessions will take place in January 2008.
