Feedback from Mr Ben K Judson PMI Kerala Member, living in New York

Dear Dr. Vikram,

Thank you very much for reaching out to me. I live in United States for past 12 years and has been a member of Trivandrum chapter for a long time. I took the membership for the first time because of a 1 day seminar you were conducting during one of my vacations. I was encouraged to continue renewing my membership realizing how great an organization you run in my home town. From my experience being a member of different professional bodies in different chapters, I can vouch you are THE BEST PMI Chapter in the world if not for all professional Organizations. Leadership teams who served the organization throughout the years truly deserve credit for it. Here's my reasons for Kerala chapter being the best chapter in the world.

1) You have regular chapter activities free of cost, Great member benefit.

2) You have the most inclusive chapter covering different industries, I have never seen such varied industries represented in chapter events anywhere else. You bring construction, aeronautical, electricity, environment, government, defense... all sectors into monthly chapter meetings.

3) You have affordable training addressing various project management topics (I'd say Most affordable in the world)

4. You keep every member informed of all the activities well in advance.

5) All comes in the cheapest chapter membership in the world.

I hope I could attend some of your future activities in some capacity in future. It's just that one of your activities has to coincide with my vacations. I will definitely attend if any present during that time. I am also open to sharing any of my knowledge or ideas with the chapter as well.

Thank you once again for reaching out to me for feedback. I truly appreciate all your efforts and that of chapter leadership. I will always keep my membership renewed. I am sure you will continue running this great organization successfully.
