PPSOSIG March 2010 Conference

In this 17th conference, the PPSOSIG continues to drive down the costs to PPSOSIG members and launches its first event at a member location. The Open University in Milton Keynes is our host for the day as we look at competence and competencies for the PMO professional.

The PPSO Competence and Competencies - High Level Performance Conference will provide the opportunity for you to discover your own individual competence levels; understand more about how competency and competencies affect your career within the PMO; practical advice on developing competency profiles for you and the PMO team; and the opportunity to hear what your peers are currently doing in the area of competence models.

So what is Competence and Competencies;

Competence - "a standardised requirement for an individual to properly perform a specific job"

Competencies - "characteristics which drive outstanding performance in a given job, role or function"

 

 

The one day conference, will be held at the Open University in Milton Keynes from 9.30am to 4.30pm. Each delegate will receive their own individual competence assessment and a copy of the APM Competence Framework.
