The Project Management Institute (PMI), with over 665,000 global members and additional credential holders and volunteers in 217 countries and territories, is the largest not-for-profit membership association dedicated to advancing the state of the art of project management. A vital and forward-thinking organization, PMI is comprised of 303 chartered local chapters internationally and 30 communities of practice. Membership in the local Montgomery County PMI Chapter is over 2000 and represents project managers in government, industry, and academia. To introduce graduating high school seniors to information on this profession and better prepare them for project management as a potential future career, the PMI Montgomery County MD Chapter has established a college scholarship program that offers a chance to be awarded two $1500.00 scholarships to graduating high school seniors to pursue further education. One of the scholarships will be open to all qualifying high school seniors, and the other will be open to senior high school descendant children of PMI Montgomery County MD Chapter members.
