Let me tell you a little more about us:
Collaborate to Succeed (C2S) is a volunteer program sponsored by the Project Management Institute-Central Iowa Chapter (PMI-CIC) that supports member project managers engaging with local not-for-profit organizations to the benefit of all involved – organization, volunteer, chapter and community. The goal is to provide project management services and/or advise organizations on how they can use project management methodology to get more value out of their projects.
We can help by:
- Mentoring existing staff on use of project management techniques with internally driven projects to improve project
execution. - Acting as the project manager by providing short-term support on a specific project.
- Offering additional development support as part of our partnership with Iowa State University and their information
systems capstone class to help with specific needs, such as development of a mobile app or website creation or
enhancements.*
*Implementation into an existing online environment, hosting applications or websites, and ongoing maintenance is the responsibility of the sponsoring organization and/or their vendor. PMI-CIC is not able to assist with any integration expenses. The PMI-CIC project manager will assist in scope definition as needed with the sponsoring organization and the student-led teams. Our assistance is in the form of content development and administrative functions for use by organization in its ongoing support.
Thank you for your interest in our program I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
