Excerpt from the URC Lifelong Learner Pledge
All the PMLTP graduates committed to the URC Lifelong Learner Pledge:
“I pledge to be a Lifelong Learner. I pledge to continuously seek new knowledge and skills to develop my project management and leadership abilities. I recognize that learning is a journey, not a destination, and there is always room for growth and improvement. I commit to staying curious and open-minded, embracing new ideas and perspectives, and challenging my assumptions.”
