ANN ARBOR, Michigan, December 1, 2009—CIMdata, Inc., the leading global Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) consulting and research firm announces that the next CIMdata PLM Certificate Program is to be held in Ann Arbor, MI from January 25-29, 2010. The CIMdata PLM Certificate Program is the flagship offering of CIMdata PLM Leadership—the PLM industry’s most comprehensive non-biased education and training offering for today’s PLM professionals.
The CIMdata PLM Certificate Program prepares PLM professionals at several levels to successfully address the challenges inherent in PLM implementations. This assessment-based certificate program includes an intimate classroom experience, individual and team-based exercises, and individual evaluations of achievement. Additionally, the program provides candidates with intensive and extensive exposure to a team of CIMdata experts. Upon successful completion of the program, each participant receives a CIMdata PLM Certificate and thereby becomes a member of CIMdata’s global PLM Leadership community.
According to Mr. Peter Bilello, CIMdata’s Vice President, “CIMdata is excited to announce the location of our first CIMdata PLM Certificate Program for 2010. The Ann Arbor program represents the first in a series of programs scheduled for 2010.” He went on to state, “As announced a few months ago, CIMdata is offering two ways in which individuals can become a member of CIMdata’s PLM Leadership community.” Program participants can complete all 9 sessions in one of two ways:
1. By attending the full program delivered over 5 consecutive days; or
2. By attending the prerequisite Core PLM Certificate sessions offered over 3 consecutive days and at a later time, within a 12-month period, completing the remaining sessions given over 2 consecutive days.
PLM Certificate Program participants can register online for either the 3-day or complete 5-day program. This certificate program is available to industrial companies who are considering and/or implementing PLM, and to PLM technology and service suppliers. The CIMdata PLM Certificate Program is built on CIMdata’s more than 25 years of extensive worldwide experience guiding industrial companies in successfully defining and implementing best-in-class PLM strategies and tactics.
