A 2017 grant for the “PMIEF – Special Olympics Project Management Center of Excellence” initiative enables the organization to establish a Project Management Center of Excellence to develop and implement a framework for its project planning, execution, governance, and standardization through pragmatic resource allocation.
In addition, the grant delivers project management fundamentals training to Special Olympics staff worldwide in the organization’s seven regions. Their project management knowledge enhances fundraising efforts, ensures more high-quality programming globally, and strengthens internal and external communications. These competencies are critical as the organization executes a myriad of projects to celebrate its 50th anniversary and in preparation for the 2019 Special Olympics World Summer Games.
