Cooperative Relations unites PMI with nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), educational institutions, and professional and trade associations in an effort to raise awareness of the profession and the important role that project management plays in achieving an organization’s strategic goals. Cooperative Relations develops and distributes knowledge-based assets, and in conjunction with other organizations, attempts to expand the member base of both PMI and the cooperating organization.
