Chapter Events

The Washington DC Chapter of PMI hosts a dinner the third Tuesday of every month at 6:30 pm at the Sheraton Premiere in Tysons Corner VA. Both members and non members are invited to listen to the monthly presentation from our speakers over dinner, while taking advantage of the opportunity to network with other project management professionals in the Washington DC area. These sessions also include a free PM Tools session immediately before the meeting.
