  1. Hi, just completed the Certificate Series – Project Portfolio Management Masterclass, Session 1 – lots of good info. Today is 7-25-2015 and Since this course was given in 2012; any way to obtain the slide show? There are some good slides packed with info and would make life easy to discuss with collegues and senior champions. Thank you so much for the opportunity to learn about PPM.
