About this webinar

Military life builds real skills. Managing logistics, adapting to change, and coordinating people and plans under pressure are skills that project management employers actively look for. This webinar will show you how your experience translates into a recognised, in-demand career and what your options look like for getting started.

We will also take some time to introduce Project STARS (Spouse Talent Acceleration and Readiness Scheme), one of the pathways available to military spouses looking to move into project management through structured, supported training and work experience.

What will you learn?

  • Why project management suits military spouses

  • How your existing skills map to the project profession

  • What a career in project management looks like in practice

  • Routes into the profession, including qualifications and training options

  • The APM Project Fundamentals Qualification (PFQ) and why it matters

  • An introduction to Project STARS as one supported pathway

  • Next steps and how to register your interest

Who should attend?
