Congratulations to the Graduates of IPM Classes 91 and 92

January 17, 2025

Congratulations are in order for the first IPM graduates of the year! Classes 91 and 92 of the Institute for Project Management started 2025 off strong, as they returned to Austin and completed the second week of MCAA’s Institute for Project Management.

They negotiated change orders, they reviewed contract clauses, they studied and practiced strategies for everything from precon to close-out… and consistently showed up with the great energy and enthusiasm that is the hallmark of IPM students. It was a pleasure to have these PMs spend two weeks with us and we hope they enjoyed the experience as much as their volunteer contractor-instructors enjoyed spending time with them! Here’s how some of these new grads describe their IPM experience:   

“This was truly a great experience and am thankful for being selected to be sent to experience this course by my company. The lessons I learned and the relationships I made (both classmates and instructors) is something that I will cherish as I continue my career in mechanical contracting and in life. [IPM] will make me a better Project Manager, but also a better person.”

“Great experience! I learned a lot of practical knowledge to take back with me. This knowledge will help make me better at my job and at life in general. Thank you for this!!”

“This was such a great experience and I made some really great friends.  I have learned so much in two weeks. Thanks to everyone for this wonderful experience. I have [learned] some things that will last a lifetime.”

The Institute for Project Management is MCAA’s longest-running and most popular project management program. It is intended for individuals with 3+ years of mechanical project management experience. Registration for our next IPM course opens January 30th! Registration is done online on a first-come, first-served basis. For full dates and details, please visit the IPM course page.
