Description

AI for Project Managers

The PMI-Montréal Next Generation Committee invites you to its next interactive workshop on May 27 at ESG UQAM.

This participatory workshop offers a practical introduction to artificial intelligence applied to project management. Designed for students and young professionals, it aims to demystify AI and demonstrate how these tools can support common project management tasks: drafting deliverables, risk analysis, planning, communication, and progress tracking.

 

What to expect:

Context: Self-assessment quiz and overview of AI applications in project management

Hands-on workshop: Prompting exercises in small groups and demonstrations of commercially available tools

Guided discussion: Opportunities, limitations, human impacts, and professional best practices

Networking: Network with your peers and speakers at the end of the evening

The workshop will also emphasize the responsible use of AI: data privacy, information validation, professional judgment, and ethics in a project context.

No prior technical expertise is required—just an interest in the ongoing transformations within the profession.
