Welcome to JRIYA – Open Project Management Support & Learning
JRIYA runs a free, open project management initiative designed to give back to the profession. This initiative is independent of any employment or commercial contract and is delivered voluntarily.
Through this initiative, I provide free training, mentoring, and career support to aspiring and early-career project professionals across multiple industries. The focus is on practical project management skills, ethical delivery, and professional judgement rather than tools alone.
Support provided includes:
- Free project management fundamentals training
- Free mentoring and coaching sessions
- CV and career guidance for project roles
- Interview preparation and mock interviews
Ongoing professional advice and support
Participation is open and free of charge. No commercial services are required or promoted as part of this initiative.
All support provided through JRIYA’s open initiative is practical, experience-based, and focused on real project delivery challenges rather than theory alone.
JRIYA Open Project Management Initiative
(Free & Voluntary)
JRIYA runs a free, open project management initiative designed to support and develop the wider project management community. This initiative is delivered voluntarily and independently, outside of any employment or commercial contract.
Through this initiative, I provide free learning, mentoring, and career support to individuals who are developing or progressing their careers in project management and project controls.
Support provided includes:
- Free project management fundamentals training
- Free mentoring and coaching sessions
- CV writing and professional profile reviews for project roles
- Interview preparation and mock interviews
- Ongoing professional advice and guidance
Participation is open and free of charge. The purpose of this initiative is to give back to the profession and support individuals in building capability, confidence, and ethical delivery practice.
Professional Project Planning & Controls Support
In addition to its open professional initiative, JRIYA also provides specialist project planning and controls support on a consultancy basis. This work supports organisations with planning, progress monitoring, delay analysis, and decision support.
These services are delivered separately from the free professional initiative and are not part of the voluntary contribution activities described above.
Free Learning & Career Support for Project Professionals
As part of the JRIYA Open Project Management Initiative, I deliver free learning and mentoring sessions aimed at supporting individuals who want to develop practical project management and project control skills.
Learning support focuses on
- Core project management principles
- Planning and control fundamentals
- Risk awareness and ethical change control
- Communicating clearly with stakeholders
Career support includes:
- CV and role-application guidance for project roles
- Interview preparation and mock interviews
- Advice on career pathways within project management
This support is delivered voluntarily and independently, with the aim of helping individuals progress into project roles or take on increased delivery responsibility.
Learning Topics Covered in the Free Programme
- Project planning and scheduling fundamentals
- Introduction to common planning tools (e.g. scheduling software concepts)
- Monitoring and control principles
- Risk identification and management
- Agile and traditional delivery approaches
- Practical use of spreadsheets for tracking and reporting
Topics are covered at a practical level to support understanding and confidence, rather than formal certification.
Purpose and Ongoing Development
JRIYA’s open initiative is informed by ongoing research into modern project management practice, including remote and hybrid delivery environments. This research helps shape how learning and mentoring are delivered, ensuring they reflect how projects operate in real conditions today.
The long-term aim is to continue contributing practical knowledge, ethical guidance, and professional support to the project management community.
