The “Project Management Day of Service” in DC is an annual, day-long event where volunteer teams of Project Managers work with DC area non-profits to crystallize problems and specify next steps in a variety of business planning areas, ranging from fund-raising and mission goals to human resource and technology issues. This year the event will take place “in person” at the Adele Stamp Student Union at the University of Maryland in College Park from 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM on Saturday, February 17, 2023 – see Program Announcement.
