Project Management

 

"The Project Management Course offered by CMCEF and the University of Waterloo was very professional in its approach with very well qualified and experienced professionals.  I have been associated with the contracting business for more than twenty (20) years.  This course is a recommended must for those interested in having a "professional standard" approach to Project Management.  Thank you for giving me the opportunity to attend" Robert Thain, Black and McDonald, Winnipeg, MB.
