Decode the PMP Application: Translate Your Leadership into PMI Terms

Ready to pursue your PMP® certification but struggling to translate your experience into PMI language? This collaborative workshop with PMI Olympia is designed to help you turn your leadership, operations, and project experience into a stronger PMP application.

Led by Juan Nieves, President of the PMI Olympia Chapter and an Army veteran with 23+ years of military leadership experience, this interactive session will walk you through how to translate your accomplishments into clear, PMI-aligned project descriptions.

  • Write concise project descriptions that meet PMI application requirements
  • Avoid common application mistakes that can lead to rejection or an audit

  • Connect with PMI Portland and PMI Olympia resources for continued support

Pro Tip: Bring a rough outline of your key projects and accomplishments so you can start working on your application in real time.
