The Chartered Institute of Project Managers of Nigeria (CIPMN) over the weekend inducted over 200 members while announcing its intention to digitise its operations by boosting the capacity of personnel toward contributing to the country’s economy.
Speaking at the end of a three-day workshop in Abuja over the weekend, Mr Henry Ifeanyi Mbadiwe, Registrar of the CIPMN, noted that they have added over 200 professional project managers that have their licenses backed by law of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, into the workforce today.
The workshop, he said, is targeted at “Increasing the skill set of individuals to add value and minimise waste, as they are going out to use the skill set they have gained to work and increase productivity, because the idea of human capital development is the only way to grow any economy’s GDP and reduce the rising number of abandoned projects,” he explained.
The Special Adviser to the President on Policy and Coordination, head of the Central Delivery and Coordination Unit (CCDU), Hadiza Bala Usman, stated that for anyone to work in the CDCU, they must acquire professional certification.
