Cognitive Technologies Group Receives Microsoft Project Certification

November 10, 2003 — Cognitive Technologies Group, LLC, of Atlanta GA, is pleased to announce that several of our associates have received Microsoft Project Orange Belt certification from the International Institute of Learning (IIL). This certification is the first step in the curriculum toward Black Belt certification
and a Masters in Microsoft Project. This certification is recognized by Microsoft, PMI, and the American Council for Education. It is awarded only upon successful completion of the multi-week course, which includes a test to confirm mastery. Those attaining the Orange Belt certification in October include Bruce McGraw, Doug Mitchell, Arthur Darr, and Lisa Grant.

“We are very proud of the recent certification of these individuals. This is yet another way that our personnel distinguish themselves from others for whom project management is not a serious profession. I applaud their achievement and the initiative they are taking to differentiate themselves in the project manage-
ment field,” says Dr. Karen McGraw, president of Cognitive Technologies Group.

IIL is a member of PMI’s Corporate Council. The Corporate Council is designed to provide corporations the opportunity to support and associate with PMI directly and to develop synergies between PMI and senior executives at leading corporations in the global community.
