The role of a project manager within the organization is constantly evolving. To stay on top of our own profession and all of the industry updates, it is crucial to continuously educate ourselves; and learn the most recent tools and techniques that could improve the end-result of the project, and to go through the process in the most efficient way. There are various resources available that continue to provide with an up-to-date information for our professional development.
Here are some of the most insightful web sources that I prefer to relate to, day in and day out:
1. www.pmi.org
PMI’s official site provides an array of educational and professional information. By becoming a member of PMI, their website not only offers you a discount for your PMP test, but also exposes to PM community and global events. It also refers to a wide range of project management opportunities. It is the world’s leading not-for-profit membership association for the project management profession.
2. www.pmhut.com

The articles are quite informative, and keep you up-to-speed with the rest of the project management world. All of the material is contributed by the individuals, who are within the field of project management themselves.
