Project Management Association of Slovakia (SPPR) is a non-profit professional organization based on voluntary association of individuals and legal entities dedicated to advancing project management in Slovakia. The Association’s main goal is all-around promotion of professional project management, primarily through skill and qualification improvements, and through exchange of knowledge and experience.

Activities include:

• Advising the Slovak government, companies and universities;
• Developing training and certification;
• Organizing courses, seminars and conferences;
• Implementing software systems;
• Issuing newsletters;
• Building up libraries; and
• Identifying challenges and cooperating with similar organizations abroad.

SPPR was established in 1994 due to splitting of Czechoslovakia into independent Czech and Slovak Republics. However, its roots go back to the 1960s when members began participating in International Project Management Association (IPMA, formerly Internet) activities.

SPPR is a member of IPMA, CENET, ICEC and also closely co-operates with the Project Management Institute (PMI).
