Project Management Institute Singapore Chapter is the country chapter of Project Management Institute (PMI).

The society was formally established on 1 April 1999 when it was registered with the Registrar of Societies Singapore. A Protem Committee led by Dr. Yeo Khim Teck applied to PMI and got approval for the Chapter to be chartered and drafted its Constitution. The first Annual General Meeting of the PMI Singapore Chapter was held on 21 March 2001. This AGM adopted the Constitution of the Chapter and formally launched the operation.

Currently, there are over 2000 members registered with PMI as Singapore Chapter Members - you can see the statistics in a box when you scroll to the bottom of this website.

PMI Singapore Chapter Constitution can be downloaded from here. (Updated in March 2022)

Events 

Volunteers within PMI Singapore Chapter help organise various kinds of events throughout the year that members can register for. They fall into two categories: 

  • Professional Development 
  • Networking Events

Professional Development events are organised to bring chapter members closer to thought leaders within the Project Management profession. Such events provide an opportunity to earn PDUs which are necessary in maintaining your continued certification requirements: CCR. PDUs are aligned with the PMI Talent Triangle.

Professional Development

    • Networking Events: These do not carry PDU but offer valuable opportunities for members to network and share their experiences with the project management community
    • Group Discussions: This moderator led event on a pre-determined theme allow for attendees to share their experiences and views and are fun, dynamic ways to promote mutual learning
    • Seminars: They are typically over 2-3 hours and help bring respected Subject Matter experts to the PMI Singapore Chapter member community. They follow a seminar format and are on a single topic
    • Boot Camps: All day focused content that help the attendee to attempt a certification exam. They can serve as refresher courses for somone who have previously attended a multi-week training program at an REP but not attempted the exam immediately after.
    • Special Events: Workshop/ Symposium: These are full day / multi-day events for large groups cover multiple topics and speakers usually under a collective theme
