    Freeing up PDU's on a data floor

    I think any proficient electrician/technician will know the answer. Project Managers (IMO) are not expected to go that technical. http://www.pmhut.com

    PMP Project Experience Claims

    I think you're probably the only one who can best assess your situation. Think about it this way, will you be able to pass an audit if you do get audited (check this article on PMP audit: http://www.pmhut.com/what-if-you-get-audited-on-your-pmp-application ). Probably an objective and honest...

    Advice - Self learning / Certification

    Mainly PRINCE2 is famous in the UK in particular and Europe ion General. PMP has a much higher profile everywhere elsewhere. I don't think that 6 sigma is in the same category as PMP and PRINCE2. For your convenience, here's a collection of PMP Articles and PRINCE2 articles...

    Good Project Management Training

    You might want to take a look at these Project Management Trainers. I'm a big fan myself of private corporate training, where the company pays money for a certain trainer to provide the training in-house. I think the environment will be more relaxed, more friendly, and much more productive...

    Productivity & Quality...

    The client is only able to judge what he sees. In most IT projects, what the client sees is an interface in action. Bugs would still exist here & there, but once you have a functioning system in place, you can fix your bugs. A client that believing that an IT project can be released as 100%...
