Teaching you how...

Let's face it.  Our introduction to project management is baptism by fire.  Training? "Just make it happen," says your [insert]:
☑️ boss
☑️ customer
☑️ client
☑️ insensitive team member. 

"Figuring it out" may get you the results (eventually), it sure does come with a lot of stress and burnout. Project management training with MindsparQ® gets you and your teams the support to learn the better practice techniques so you no longer have to "wing it" and instead crush it on your next project.

ABOUT US

MindsparQ has trained more than 65,000 professionals across startups, healthcare, nonprofits, and government. Not by following a script, but by cutting through theory and focusing on what actually works in the field. For over 20 years, Crystal Richards has designed and delivered project management education that meets professionals where they are: in complex organizations, under real constraints, with real accountability. Our programs build practical capability across predictive, agile, and hybrid delivery. For professionals pursuing the PMP, we offer a clear, credentialed pathway through the University of Maryland alongside the most rigorous exam readiness experience available.

We do not teach to a kit. We teach to the work.

Not your average speaker
Other people get in front of people to talk. I get in front of people to teach. With audiences such as the Digital PM Summit and the University of Maryland PM Symposium, you and your team can also learn ways to be better project managers.

What conference and workshop participants say

Crystal is a dynamic speaker and trainer. I met Crystal at the Digital Project Manager Summit and she rocked the stage. I left her keynote understanding that I am in control of my career and happiness.
Vanessa Parker
Crystal spoke at the BU PMiP conference and her sessions were one of my favorites. She presented on workplace politics and shed a new perspective on it and how we can use it to our advantage. She was engaged and focused in her message. Keep up the good work Crystal!
Aren Imsong
I have been spoiled by Crystal. She ran a PM training class and her approach was topnotch! She did an amazing job engaging the whole class and made us all have a firm understanding of the topics. I would bring her into any company at any level to conduct her training services. She is a superstar in my book.
