Project Management Lunch & Learn: 9/16

Do you ever wonder what projects are active? Do you want to know what was requested and not started? Do you, from time to time, think about what is going on with the projects you heard about at the last Divisional Meeting? If you answered yes, or even maybe, to any of those questions, this Lunch & Learn is for you!

The group will review how to use Eclipse to see the status on any project, including how to search for projects and see what the management team sees each week. Please join us in MG1 with your lunch on Wednesday at noon. The meeting is optional.
