A roundtable is a meeting where Project Managers discuss issues that they face on a daily basis. The roundtable meetings are in various locations in the Portland-Vancouver area and each has a personality of its own. They follow a basic pattern but often vary from that and have special formats for meetings based on their on-going discussions.

The meetings always start with introductions and a usually have a solicitation for topics. Topics tabled that are current issues in performing a person's job are given priority. The topics are selected based on the rules of the specific roundtable and the topics are opened for discussion. On occasion, prearranged topics are discussed. This would be in cases where preparation time for topic facilitation might be needed.

These meetings are worth 1 PDU, extremely valuable and always fun. There is a balance of Junior and Senior Project Managers from a variety of disciplines to provide an eclectic view of a subject. How to claim PDUs.
