I am a gantthead member and recommend the (free) membership to all Project Managers. Charles has a full lifetime membership, perhaps we can get Charles to post his take on being a gantthead. Gantthead's Erin DeCaprio has joined us here at AboutProjectManagement by adding her comments to an earlier post.
Next month is Gantthead's annual exposition - PMXPO 2012. This is a virtual exposition that you enjoy from your desk or at home. Follow the link below to register, and reserve Thursday, May 17, 2012 for the PMXPO!

I believe that projects are everywhere, ubiquitous, and that it is in the thousands of projects I see everyday that I can have the greatest impact. I work to be a constant source of positive reinforcement and encouragement to everyone working on projects, posting six days a week to share good news, good thoughts, and great projects with my project peers.
"I would say that a PMP Certification is highly respected within both IT & non-IT communities where strong project management skills are required. If you plan on a long term career as a project manager, then yes, even with your level of experience, I would suggest getting your PMP. You can prepare yourself for the exam in one of the PMP trainingproviders like PMStudy. You can do minimal prep-work to get 40 PMI® Contact Hours and apply to PMI for PMP Exam before the class begins.
