Frequently asked questions

A paid career-progression community for experienced project professionals. It is where you work on the gap between being capable and being chosen: positioning, visibility, evidence and interview performance, taught from three decades on the hiring and evaluation panels.

Project professionals who have already built real experience and want to move forward in the career they have: greater responsibility, a stronger specialism, or work better aligned to their goals. It is not an introduction to project management and it is not general career coaching for leaving the profession.

A free five-minute check that tells you which of the four career blockers is holding back your progression: Education, Experience, Skills or Exposure. Your result comes with the first move to make for your specific blocker. Take the Career Blocker Check

James J Bailey, Consulting Director. Three decades across government, rail, space and financial services, more than £1 billion of programmes, PeopleCert Authorised Trainer, and thirty years sitting on the panels that do the choosing.

Because it is taught from the deciding side. Recruiters, hiring managers and panels look you up before they reply to you, and what they find decides more than what you sent them. Everything inside is built on what those rooms actually score.

That is exactly what the Career Blocker Check is for. Take it first, then join with your result in hand. Take the Career Blocker Check
