Dr Peter Tobin, founding director of PTC, has received official confirmation that his status as a Project Management Professional (PMP) has been extended for a further three years to 2017. This marks a continuous unbroken period of twenty years since 1996 when Dr Tobin successfully passed the professional certification examination offered by PMI which was followed by his PMP certification being issued for the first time in 1998. "This twenty year period has been marked not only by some significant changes in the Project Management Body of Knowledge, expanding from 8 to 10 Knowledge Areas", says Dr Tobin, "but also by a continuous commitment on a three year cycle earning Professional Development Units to maintain this sought-after professional certification". Dr Tobin continues to be less than one hundred PMP-certified people in South Africa who also holds the Professional membership grade awarded by PMSA .
