Just curious to know if anyone has any class suggestions for me to take to further my PM knowledge. I’ve been with my commercial construction company for 11yrs. I started at the front desk for 2years, accounting for 8 years and last year I asked to become a PE with a PM goal. Halfway through the year I was promoted from a PE to a PM, running small trade work jobs under 500k. I was officially promoted to a PM this January. My bachelors degree is not in construction.

I’m worked in Construction Management with 17 years experience. Try getting a PMP certification. However, you need 3 years experience in order to obtain.

What state are you in? Some states have classes you can take to be certified.

Out of curiosity. How would a company view a potential candidate who has a period of unemployment to study for the CPA. I am considering to start studying for the exam but I know I would need to leave my employer in order to give 110%. I am contemplating the idea of at least passing one part while employed. Then leaving my employer to study FAR. I am considering to leave my current employer anyways, so it’s more of how my future employer would view that lapse.

I quit my previous job approximately 5-6 months ago due to toxic culture and being pressured to commit fraud… I fear hiring managers see that I’ve been out of work for this time and may assume I was fired or laid off. Additionally I’ve had a couple interviews where company “X” interviewers have commented on this and in an effort to not bad mouth my previous employer I’m stuck with a generic answer like I want to take my career to the next level with Company “X.” Any thoughts/advice?
