Frank Clemente PMILIC PMP/CAPM Preparation Grant Program

Program Summary:

Frank Clemente was a long time Board Member of the Long Island Chapter of the Project Manager Institute (“PMILIC”), serving in various positions; most recently as a Strategic Advisor, even after relocating to North Carolina.  Frank was also the President and Owner of Total Systems Education, LTD, one of PMILIC’s valued sponsors and partners.  Frank was a tireless advocate and supporter of Project Managers, of all skill levels, that were unemployed or underemployed.  Sadly, Frank passed away in 2018. 

To honor Frank, PMILIC offers the Frank Clemente PMILIC PMP/CAPM Grant Program.  The program offers one tuition-free seat in each PMILIC sponsored/approved PMP/CAPM Preparation session, to continue with Frank’s passion of assisting those in transition. This seat will be awarded to an active PMILIC Member who is unemployed, or underemployed, at the time of application.
