Improving Project Delivery Capabilities:
Founded in 1993 and operating from the UK, PMIS provides accredited classroom and online project management training and consulting in modern PM methods. We have trained staff from well over a hundred organisations – sometimes hundreds of people from just one firm.
PMIS specialises in supporting organisations that have clear goals to improve their own project delivery capability.
We only deliver project management (PM) related training and have a first-class track record supported by excellent customer references. PMIS has worked across Europe, USA, South America, Asia and the Middle East.
Always using projects from your own business:
We always use real projects from the client’s business as the basis of all courses. This has major advantages from a learning perspective and is very simple for us to do.

What PM methods do we use or promote?
PMIS works in multiple industries and environments, where there are often differing needs relating to PM.
For this reason, we do not support one single PM method above all others. We do though, support certain approaches and methods more than others. For example, Agile. Agile project management (is not actually a method), it is more about the environment within which projects happen. Agile promotes things such as:
- shortening lines of communication; improving the effectiveness and frequency of communication;
- early involvement and participation of key stakeholders;
- cross-functional teamwork;
- slimming down project documentation to focus on the fundamentals of a project;
- responding to and being able to accommodate change swiftly.
These are all excellent practices found in the most effective project environments, which PMIS has been promoting for over two decades.

Our approach when working with clients
PMIS staff will listen carefully to understand and agree your needs. We will agree on objectives and goals, and focus on developing an approach that will quickly make a real difference in your business.
Skills transfer to the workplace – Organisational Development
Too often training courses educate but do not translate to the workplace. Sustained improvement does not come about on its own. It often requires behavioral change, which must be managed, using approaches employed in methods such as Organisational Development.
PMIS can help you in a highly practical way to transfer learning to the workplace and help the organisation use their newly acquired skills – ensuring that the investment in training makes a real difference to the performance of your business.
