Intelicamps are based on the premise that project professionals are some of the busiest people in the world. They already possess a huge amount of knowledge and experience, and it would be torturous for them to sit through three, four, or five days of training.

1. Maximum Flexibility: Course delivered in real time online and in-class; Modular sessions of 3-4 hours each making these easier to schedule; pay once and return anytime within twelve months.
2. Intelligent & Accelerated: Led by certified and experienced instructors, access to huge test bank of thousands of questions for participants to practice.
3. Extraordinary Value: Up to twelve months of attendance; more detailed than ECO (examination content outline); battle-tested with war stories from our past participants.

"In our fast paced society, the demand on professional's time is huge. Our Intelicamps are designed for busy people where flexibility is paramount. In that regard, our Intelicamps are unequal in the training world", stated Te Wu, founder and CEO of PMO Advisory.

By offering one year of training for one price, we are there to support aspiring project professionals through the entire period in which they qualify to take the exam."

Intelicamps are already offered for Project Management Institute's Portfolio Management certification (PfMP) and will soon be available for other credentials including Program Management (PgMP), Project Management (PMP), Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM), and Project Risk Management (PMI-RMP)®.

How to Share the Secrets of Project Management

Project managers can often be confused with magicians in the business world - those who, when there are changes in the business folded Merlin -like complex, with large tables, PC and scary words like risk, resources and Critical Path. Then, as if by magic, make it all happen.


In reality, however, project management is not magic. It is based on a methodical approach to planning, implementation, monitoring and modification of the original plan. Those who practice the art do not possess superhuman powers.

They are, however, experts in their field. When change has to do both these capabilities, along with all the necessary skills in the field, which came together to bring a lot of knowledge about how things are today, and how we want to do tomorrow. In other words, facilitate business change.

Take for example the introduction of a new system to manage the workflow of a department, and the following groups within the company who may be interested:

• The end users – their day to day work is about to change.
• Human Resources – they may need to negotiate changes in working conditions.
• IT department – they will have to act as frontline support.
• Training department – they will need to carry out upgrade training for existing staff as well as training new staff.
• Corporate Communications – they will need to dispel the FUD factor (Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt) and help ensure smooth changes, while maintaining business as usual.

On the face of it, even a simple change can have far-reaching effects within an organization. With this level of potential impact, it is not surprising that things do not always go as planned.

Project for any business is by nature a temporary body set up to make the change. It dissolves once the change has been implemented and beds to become habitual.

But each of the areas in the above example can be considered a small project in itself - and the staff can make a positive contribution to our understanding of project management processes , and in an ideal world , also get involved and support the project manager (which has never refuse offers genuine help and support. )
So it's worth sharing the secrets of project management, such as learning what a critical path is and how to build one - or better yet, do some basic training.

While management of the project may not be necessary to know the full range of management risk analysis and Monte Carlo techniques, to understand what is a clear requirement is and how to plan and connect a set of dependencies that go a long way to help and support the project manager and as the impact on performance in other parts of ' enterprise.

Organizations that allow staff to practice witchcraft this does not guarantee success, but it certainly does not prevent it .The divisions are also beneficial. While project managers may be needed for major changes, some of the smaller projects can be given to other members, for example:

• The HR Manager who needs to plan a recruitment campaign.
• The Marketing Manager who needs to organise a successful conference.
• The Training Manager with a new programme to implement for key staff.
• The Office Manager with a new system to implement across the company’s different locations.
• The Production Manager who needs to get a special order out for a client.

All these would benefit from knowledge of the tools and techniques that today’s project managers use.

The Call for Project Managers to Lead, Rather Than Manage

Top 10 Annual ESI Trends for 2014 , as identified by our leaders and experts in the field , highlighted growing unease with the management practices of ongoing projects , due to disappointing results .


Although organizations invest hundreds of millions of dollars in project management tools , credentials and training , reports the Project Management Institute ( PMI) , Gartner and Forrester continue to show poor performance as a result of project performance project management.
A global survey by the PMI found that the rate of failure of the project 2012-2013 has increased by 10 percent. No wonder then that organizations from all sectors are getting tired of this, and are looking for different approaches to ensure their projects have better results.

Positive action is the adoption of lean methodologies to ensure that each project has a sponsor with a spine - and perhaps more significantly - the deployment of the best programmers Leadership project manager and programmer.


This greater emphasis on leadership as part of the projects has also led to a small but growing number of organizations require their professional project leaders rather than managers .
While this is unlikely to result in a change of the project manager security is an important indicator of the ability to lead a team is now seen as more crucial to the success of management.

Practical Approach

The difference between management and leadership comes down to how the work of employees or team members "and the observed structure . Manager tends to be more rigid, hierarchical process , with emphasis on the professional development of society , rather than the practice of obtaining the job done.


A key component of the leader meantime, he is working as part of a team , maintaining the authority of the decision-making process clear to all team members.

In the context of project management , project managers are unique in the way that his teams compiled .Instead of being recruited and chosen based on how they fit and compliment the rest of the team, a project team is organized on the basis of available resources.A PM must often juggle a lot of contrasting personalities and different backgrounds and therefore must be able to communicate and motivate the team in the vision and objectives of the project .Being a good leader ensures that you are better able to pull a team together and align their members in a common goal in order to get the best performance from them.The project team with more emphasis on the more important, therefore, will have better results than those based on operations.

Facilitating change

Fortunately, this force for positive change can be driven directly by the project managers themselves - those who are not willing to sit back and watch things continue as they are - but instead, want to actively help your organization better manage projects.
Take direction courses ESI and training in the UK have increased steadily over the past four years , indicating that professional project management have begun to realize the importance of leadership skills and experience in addition to the technical and business skills, organization and their careers.


Make things happen and to better facilitate this change , organizations reward these project managers for their maintenance.

The fact is that , despite the poor performance of project success, the project management is a growth industry - but it is increasingly difficult to recruit the right for project managers .
The lack of resources of the applicant qualified There are thousands of places left vacant in project management worldwide .


Organizations seeking and fighting for the leading professional project management do not want their good project manager to leave.


So for those who possess the skills and technical knowledge, proven experience and a willingness to change suitable residence , there has never been a better time to be a project manager - provided they keep their skills - especially the leadership - as sharp as may .
