Black Diamond Charities is a nonprofit that delivers a unique project management fundamentals class to US military and veterans to help advance their civilian careers. Instructors are all PMP certified and volunteer their time to bring a wealth of diverse industry experience to the classroom. At any given time there will typically be half a dozen instructors in the classroom, providing great depth and diverse perspectives during the discussions that come up during topic lectures. The chemistry that comes out of a class of ~ 30 engaged veterans is just magical. Several of the instructors have illustrious military career backgrounds, as well as significant industry experience, and are a key part of cooking-up that magic. Fall classes are held at the IIT Stuart School of Business, downtown campus: 565 W. Adams, Chicago, IL 60661 Spring classes are virtual, via Zoom and hence convenient for qualified students everywhere. Whether you are a veteran looking to expand your professional options, or a PMP who wants to serve our veterans, we'd love to hear from you.
