Portland, OR, March 25, 2013 — Creative Performance Inc. is pleased to announce the release of a limited number of spaces to our newly created Workamajig® Project Management University. This content, normally reserved exclusively to our Workamajig Deployment and Workamajig Re-deployment consulting solutions, is now available to general audiences for the very first time.

Of the numerous Project Management seminars on the market, few are focused specifically on the unique needs for advertising and marketing Agency Project Managers, and none are Workamajig® specific – except for ours.

To be held in Portland, Oregon from May 21 to May 24, 2013, this Project Management seminar will focus on agency best practices and ways to utilize the many benefits of Workamajig® to keep your projects on-target, on-schedule, and on-budget.
