More Help on the Way for Accidental Project Managers!

As one reviewer put it: “Accidental Project Manager: From Zero to Hero in 7 Days provides an excellent introduction to the basics of project management told in a readable and highly understandable allegory about an individual thrust unexpectedly into the project manager role. Through the use of the PROJECT acronym anyone can quickly gain an understanding of the foundations of a managing a project through this book.”

On 12 August 2019, more help for the aspiring, new, and accidental project manager arrives with the launch of Accidental Project Manager: The Online Experience (https://accidentalpm.online).  Continuing in the tradition of the book, this new online experiential course develops essential project management skills quickly, jargon free, and allows learners to “learn while doing.” The course includes a downloadable copy of the book, 30+ video learning lessons in nine modules, quizzes, and hands-on assignments, all accessible for 60 days. All course materials can be viewed on PCs, tablets, or phones.  At course completion, an Accredible Project Hero badge is awarded for use on social media. 

Ray W. Frohnhoefer, Managing Partner of PPC Group, LLC, the course author and publisher, has stated he “wants to help as many aspiring project managers during course launch as possible.  For the next month, the course will sell for $197 (a $297 value).  Enter coupon code AUGUSTLAUNCH and $150 will be deducted for a total payment of $47.  During the pre-launch and launch period, $10 per purchase will go to support PMI Educational Foundation scholarships.  A 14-day free trial of the first lesson is also available without a credit card or other obligation.”

In conjunction with the course launch, the book distribution will be expanded.  In addition to having print and Kindle copies available on most Amazon Marketplaces, a version is now available for Kobo e-readers (Kobo is offering $5 off for first time Kobo purchases: https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/accidental-project-manager), and another version is available with your SitePoint premium subscription (https://www.sitepoint.com/premium/library).  And of course, a version is available with the online course.
