Robbins-Gioia And ESI Team to Offer Core Project Management Curriculum

Companies Create One Complete Solution for Two Major Government Challenges

August 19, 2003, Alexandria, Virginia— Robbins-Gioia, LLC, a premier program management consulting company, and ESI, the industry leader in project management training, have teamed to help their federal customers surmount two challenges: fulfilling requirements for project management certification and scoring better on businesses cases.

Robbins-Gioia brings 23 years of management consulting experience, with an emphasis on mentoring its customers with certified, on-the-ground experts. And since 1981, ESI has built its reputation as the industry leader in project management training. ESI’s academic partner is the prestigious George Washington University. By selecting classes in the Robbins-Gioia/ESI core project management curriculum, students can earn a Master’s Certificate in Project Management from GWU. They can also choose to earn an Associate’s Certificate in Project Management.

In response to customer requests for help in meeting Office of Management and Budget Exhibit 300 requirements for process change, Robbins-Gioia has developed a business case analysis solution. “Based on our extensive experience in helping customers respond to the 300s, it is clear that understanding and practicing core PM concepts is a critical factor in meeting these requirements,” said Jennifer Stanford, Robbins-Gioia’s director of professional development. “Through ESI’s project management training and our mentoring services, we are providing clients with the knowledge and techniques they need to succeed.”

“This alignment of our two companies enables our customers to take advantage of a total consulting and training package,” said Larry Seeley, ESI president. “It makes sense that we would partner together because our products complement one another. Working jointly, we integrate the core competencies of both organizations and confirm our commitment to our customers.”
