Greetings,
This is my second opportunity to be the president of your organization. I challenge you to not only be a member of the NSCSS (The Nebraska State Council for the Social Studies), but for you to also become actively involved. There is a time and financial commitment, but it is very minor. You can sacrifice eating a few “Big Macs” and soon have the price of membership ($15). Your body and I will thank you for joining.
The latest news is that we started initiatives in the project management education and certification fields. This is something that you may need to pay a special attention as it is really interesting. We started cooperating with PGOV.org and the Global Regulatory Network regarding some of the best project management certifications programs. We focused our efforts for now on the modern Agile management style of the BVOP.
