“A dream come true” -
WVI
It allows us to be more effective in planning, making decisions and obtaining results. By implementing the tools we can optimize our resources, manage ongoing projects well and look for new opportunities – CIAM Panamá
We are using the Work Breakdown Structure,
RACI and the whole PMPro Guide to prepare and write new projects
and obtain financing from international
organizations AMA - Guatemala
Honestly I think that the PMD Pro training is the most important training that I have attended since I joined Plan 7 years ago, because it gave me the tools and a better understanding of what is expected and how to assemble a Project in a development organization like Plan
