Why We Do What We Do

Dr. Wright’s transition from Service Member to Project Manager was long, slow and arduous.  He struggled to gain the right combination of experience, degrees, credentials, demonstrable skills, and ability to translate his value cogently for civilian hiring managers, recruiters, and human resource professionals.

However, once he translated his military experience and talent into the context of project management though, his fortunes changed immediately, and rapidly!  He had found the land of milk and honey that is a meaningful, lucrative career in project management!

He now dedicates the full measure of his decades of experience, education, training, and skills as a Veteran, business executive, professor, project manager, and hiring manager to help bring his Veteran Brothers and Sisters into this same bountiful career!

To help him help Military Members become Project Managers, he has assembled a team of industry experts delivering a Veteran-specific transition program that creates a bridge between industry, profession, and Veteran.  The result is a powerful, proven end-to-end value stream producing exceptionally well-qualified project managers ready to deliver immediate value to organizations day one.

OUR MISSION

We help Military Veterans become Project Managers by: 1. Inspiring them with a clear, meaningful, lucrative end-state as a career Project Manager; 2. Train them to deliver project success and obtain project management credentials; 3. Prepare them for CIVDIV reintegration with professional resumes, interview skills, and social media savvy; 4. Place them into meaningful, lucrative proejct management careers.

OUR VISION

We will be the premiere project management trainer of choice for the Military, Defense, and Veteran communities; and we will be a leader in the movement to help military Members, Veterans, and Retirees make a successful transition to civilian life after their honorable and dedicated service to their country.
