NEWTOWN SQUARE, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Project Management Institute (PMI), the world’s leading professional membership organization for project managers, will host its PMI® Global Congress 2010—Asia Pacific in Melbourne, Australia 22-24 February 2010. PMI’s Global Congress allows experts and professionals at all levels to network, discuss trends in project, program and portfolio management, and achieve professional development.

Over the past few years, organizations in the Asia Pacific region have seen a dramatic increase in the demand for skilled project managers to handle the growing number of infrastructure projects. However, the global economic slowdown has constrained resources considerably, and project managers are being asked to demonstrate added value beyond their traditional abilities to manage schedules and budgets while delivering a high quality outcome and ultimately customer satisfaction.

The congress includes more than 40 sessions on topics such as project management trends, the use of new media and social networking tools, using methodologies like agile to complement general project management practices, and skills needed to manage risk in the new economy. Combined with many opportunities for professional networking, the Global Congress experience offers attendees the opportunity to understand how to work within these real-world confines to deliver successful projects. Project, program and portfolio managers across all industries and regions will gather helpful insights, make new contacts, and leave the event with ideas for immediate implementation in their day-to-day roles.

Registration and pricing for the Global Congress and lodging information is now open online. Exhibit and sponsorship opportunities are also available and more information can be obtained by visiting PMI® Asia Pacific Sales.

PMI® Global Congress 2010—Asia Pacific will take place at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre.
