The Project Management Institute Northern Alberta Chapter (PMI-NAC) is a volunteer organization founded in 1981 that covers the geographic area of northern Alberta and the NWT. Our vision is to be the pre-eminent project management leader in the Northern Alberta Chapter community so that individuals and organizations will embrace project management and attribute their success to it. PMINAC currently has over 1700 members representing small, medium and large consulting firms, and private and public corporations, from a cross-section of industries including information technologies (IT), telecommunications, oil and gas, engineering, construction, utilities, and government. The Chapter strives to provide its members with a variety of opportunities for both career and personal growth through education, collaboration, networking and special events. Other member benefits include reduced registration fees for chapter events and eligibility to serve the chapter as a board member or director.
