Judging Opportunities for First Lego League (4th – 8th grade)

First Lego League is looking for judges to participate in the upcoming tournaments. The focus this year is “Superpowered: Explore where energy comes from and how it is distributed, stored, and used to work to innovate for a better energy future”. PMI Phoenix Academic Outreach is continually looking for ways to give back to our community. This is an opportunity where we can provide educational mentoring and assistance to students so that they can get feedback from project management professionals.

Judge Responsibilities

As an Innovation Project judge, you will interview FLL teams (made up of 4th to 8th graders) and assess their process and documentation for developing a project solution.
Teams will:

  • identify and research a problem related to improving the energy journey (where energy comes from and how it is distributed, stored and used)
  • design a new solution or improve an existing one based on their selected idea, brainstorming and plan,
  • create a model, drawing or prototype of their project solution,
  • test and iterate their solution by sharing with others and making improvements based on feedback

Before teams leave the room, judges also serve as mentors to provide feedback to the team by communicating team strengths and areas that can be improved.
Interested participants also need to complete the required youth protection background screening. In the event selection, there are several FLL tournaments to choose from. The specific tournaments needing volunteer judges are:

  • 12/3 “Robotics Is For Everyone” at Chandler High School, 350 N. Arizona Avenue
  • 12/10 at Metro Tech High School, 1900 W. Thomas Road
  • 12/10 at Red Mountain High School, 7301 E. Brown Road
  • 12/17 at Mesa Academy for Advanced Studies, 6919 E. Brown Road

Logistics

Help us fight hunger!

Help us fight hunger!

In Arizona, food insecurity is a problem 2 million Arizonans are faced with every year. Nearly 30% of our neighbors are considered working poor, living on wages that barely cover housing and other basic necessities. 

But we believe no one should go to bed hungry.

That's why we're teaming up to fundraise for St. Mary's Food Bank, an organization dedicated to ending hunger in Arizona. 

Will you help us? 

Support your community by making a donation to our team. The process is fast, easy, and secure. Together, we can find a way to ease the burden on our hungry neighbors.

Project Management Institute (PMI®) Project Management Professional (PMP®) Certification Program Policy Statement Concerning PMP Retired Status

To apply for retired status, please review the policies and submit a confirmation to us by email (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.).

Once we receive the confirmation, we will process your request, update your certification status, and you will not need to earn or report professional development units (PDUs).  If you have any questions or concerns, please contact Customer Care at 1 610 915 CARE (2273) 

 

1. PMP Retired Status. PMP Retired status allows PMPs, who are retired, to remain within, and participate with, the PMI Certification Program. The PMP Retired is a retired status, and is not a credential for practice.


2. Eligibility. A PMP in good standing, who wishes to voluntarily relinquish his/her certification due to retirement,
and who has abided by the PMP Code of Professional Conduct, is eligible to receive PMP Retired status. PMP
Retired status is limited to qualified PMPs who no longer receive primary remuneration from practicing in the
project management field and have been a PMP in good standing for the last ten (10) consecutive years.

3. Recognition and Participation. PMPs who receive PMP Retired status are entitled to receive recognition in the
registry of PMPs, and eligible to participate in PMI Certification Program activities.

4. Use of PMP Retired Credential and Mark. PMPs with Retired status are granted permission to use the “PMP
Retired” status designation, as directed by the PMI Certification Program. PMPs Retired are not permitted to use
the “PMP” credential or related marks, unless they have returned to active PMP status, consistent with the terms of
this policy.

5. Reinstatement to Active PMP Status. PMPs who have received PMP Retired status, and who return to active
practice and wish to use the PMP credential in conjunction with their practice, are required to seek reinstatement
of active PMP status. PMPs Retired who are within the PMP certification expiration date that was in effect at the
time of status change to PMP Retired may have their active PMP status reinstated by paying all applicable fees at
the time of reinstatement. PMPs Retired who wish to reactivate their PMP status and are within one year beyond
their PMP certification expiration date, must satisfy the applicable Continuing Certification Renewal requirements,
and provide required documentation. PMPs Retired, who are a year beyond the expiration date of their PMP
certification, must satisfy requirements of the initial PMP certification process.
