A
total of 500 people in 75 countries registered for this first drawing
for the free course. Results of the random number-based drawing held on
16 August included the following: 1st Prize Winner was
Mr. Maxwell
Stewart in The Philippines. Twenty 2nd Prize Winners included
individuals in 13 countries, including Algeria, Canada, Cameroon,
Ethiopia, India, Italy, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, South Africa,
Ukraine, UAE and the USA. 2nd Prize was a 20% discount on registration
for the course.
According to PMForum's Managing Editor
David
Pells,
"The response to our GiveAways Program has been great, as
reflected in this first drawing. It is also rewarding to see that
PMForum and PM World Today readers are in so many countries. The
opportunity to win a free $445 course obviously resonated with a lot of
people around the world."The
Certificate in Project Management
(CIPM) - Developed by the Centre for Excellence in Project Management
Pvt. Ltd (CEPM) and offered through the CEPM-PMForum Partnership, the
online CIPM course and certification is registered with the Project
Management Institute (PMI®) for 35 professional development units
(PDUs). This is a comprehensive and intense online course covering 8
stages in a major project life cycle, combining elements from PMI's
Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge and IPMA's
International Competence Baseline. CIPM is one of the world's best and
least expensive options for organizations to certify large numbers of
project management professionals. Regular Course Price for single user
= US$445.
More information about the course can be found at

"There were only three
registrations from Algeria and one person won. Two registrations from
Ukraine, and one person won; this really shows the opportunities when a
random number approach is used," Pells added. "And actually, since some
of the winners of the 2nd prize did not want to register for the course
and because we drew a total of 50 names in the drawing, we simply moved
down the list to find 20 people who wanted the course at the discounted
pricing. So more people actually won than 21. We will probably use this
same approach in the future, to maximize the number of winners." PMForum's
PM GiveAways™ Program is based on periodic
DRAWINGS for free
educational and professional project management products and services.
PM GiveAways™ will include project management courses, books,
conference passes and other valuable items. Drawings will be held at
least monthly, with the products and services to be given away
announced in breaking news articles ahead of time and on PM GiveAways™
web pages.
