Dear PMI-SWVA Members,

A big thank you to Jon Stenbeck who not only hosted an awesome double PDU night last Thursday, but a fantastic ACP prep class on Friday!

Thursday, we learned about the challenges facing Agile based teams who need to scale from their small teams to a company wide agile framework.  Then after dinner, Jon exposed his top 5 techniques for improved estimating on any project you face.  These were very informative and presentations from Jon will be posted here for PMI-SWVA members.

Then we had over 30 PMI-SWVA members (and even one from Richmond) attend our PMI-ACP blended learning class.  Jon took his normal 2 day class and condensed it into a 1 day, review type session.  While he shared many of his stories on Agile, he also talked through many tips and hints to help pass the test.  In the end, he gave everyone the opportunity to build a study group.  Those in attendance will be receiving an email from me so that we can all keep in touch and also a follow up email from Jon with more instructions going forward.

Thanks again for everyone who came out to our special 2-day PDU event!

All the best,
Kristen Gorman
