Project YOU is PMI Northeast Florida's Professional Growth Summit, bringing together project professionals, emerging leaders, recruiters, employers, students, sponsors, and industry experts for an afternoon dedicated to learning, connection, and career development.

Whether you are preparing for your next opportunity, expanding your professional network, strengthening your leadership capabilities, or investing in your long-term success, Project YOU is designed to help you gain practical insights, build meaningful relationships, and take the next step in your professional growth.

Your Project YOU Experience

Thursday, October 15 | In-Person Professional Growth Summit

Final breakout speakers and session topics will be announced as they are confirmed.

Customize Your Project YOU Experience

There is no single way to experience Project YOU.

The Career Connection Experience is open from 11:30 AM–4:30 PM, giving you the flexibility to personalize your afternoon. Attend both breakout sessions, choose the sessions most relevant to you, or spend additional time networking and exploring career resources throughout the event.

Career Connection Experience

Available throughout the afternoon:

• Professional Headshots
• Résumé Reviews
• Recruiter Tables
• Sponsor Booths
• Employer and Industry Connections
• Professional Networking

Professional headshots and résumé reviews are expected to be available through advance reservations. Reservation instructions and additional event details will be provided to registered attendees before the Summit.

Build the Project YOU experience that best supports where you are—and where you want to go next.

Built Around the Project YOU Framework

Project YOU is built around a Professional Growth Framework that guides the entire Summit experience. From the opening keynote and networking activities to breakout sessions, career conversations, and the Virtual Experience, every aspect of the event is intentionally designed to support one or more of these four pillars of professional development.

While speakers and session topics may vary each year, our focus remains the same—helping you Design Your Future. Develop Your Strengths. Deliver Your Potential.
