Sup Beyonders, looking for some insight regarding my position at work. To give you guys a bit of background,
I have been a structural/piping drafter for about 3+ years now and currently work for a small – med fab company.
I have been given the opportunity to advance my career and potentially become a Jr. project manager, through shadowing and training.
My question is, since my post-secondary educational background only consist of a Diploma in Drafting, would I require further education such as a PMM or a business degree to supplement my future position here at this company?
I’m worried that if I apply to be a project manager at a different company later on, they would be looking for those credentials rather than my experience of work.
I still plan to further increase my knowledge and experience in drafting (Software, and 3D modeling) but I have more interest in earning more $$ and learning new skills for the future.
