Reviews:
"I got a Six Sigma certification from MSI but I also wanted to have a project management certification. I enjoyed the first program, so came back to MSI for this certification also. MSI offers one of the only project management certifications that combines Lean. Since I work in software development, I think this certification should be a great addition to my resumé." - William M.
"Having strong project management skills is always important in business. I'm a business manager in the healthcare industry and project management skills are critical if you want to get anything done. I liked the MSI program and will probably come back for some more of their programs." - Kris V. "My boss asked me to take this MSI program as part of our companies leadership development program. Lean is used a lot in the automotive industry so I took this program instead of the regular project management certification. I think it was a good mix. I went through the study material for two weeks and then took and passed the exam." - Ali Z. |
