ONLINE/REMOTE INSTRUCTION FOR ALL EVMI TRAINING AND CERTIFICATION BEGINNING MARCH 16, 2020
Effective March 16, 2020, EVMI Earned Value Management Institute will transition to one hundred percent online and remote instruction for all our EVMI related training and certification programs. All EVMI training will be given in online delivery mode and will be interactive with a Live Instructor (world-class) and we will simulate as best as we can the real live experience.
All and any previously scheduled classes will not be canceled however the delivery format will be in online formats and we encourage all Participants to take their training in the safest environments in light of the recent COVID-19 outbreak in the USA.
All registered participants for any and all EVMI training and certification programs will receive their online login instructions within 72 hours of the start of classes. All EVMI training materials will be sent to all registered participants one week to the start of their online classes.
Beginning March 16, 2020, there will be no in-person training provided by EVMI training staff whether the training is onsite, offsite (at designated hotels or conference centers) or at the client site.
All previously scheduled training prior to this announcement and all future training by EVMI will be offered online with Live Instructors from EVMI Earned Value Management Institute.
EVMI strongly advises all Participants to adhere to the travel, health safety and socialization guidelines including social distancing and sanitation recommendations and advisories offered by their local, state, US Federal Government, World Health Organization (WHO) and Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the USA on health safety, hygiene, mobility, sanitation and travel as it is related to the ongoing COVID -19 pandemic.
EVMI wishes all our Participants and the American Public total safety as we combat, control and mitigate COVID-19.
Health and wellbeing
Protecting the health and well-being of our communities in the USA and abroad is at the forefront of this difficult decision.
These instructional delivery changes are only one aspect of EVMI’s comprehensive contingency planning, and we are acting on the recommendations of leading health officials at the local, state, US Federal Government, White House Presidential Advisories and International levels.
In the light of the impending COVID-19 crisis, additionally, among other things, we advise all our Participants to:
- Practice and promote good, basic hygiene.
- Know when and how to wash your hands and use sanitizer.
- Practice social distancing. Universal social distancing is critical to protecting everyone
