Best Way To Get Into Project Management

In addition to your regular job and local PMI chapter, check with your local charities or churches to see if they need any volunteer project management experience. Be sure to track your hours even for volunteer work, as it counts towards becoming a certified PiMP.

Another option is to let your hobbies lead you to project management experience. Do you like running? Work with your local running groups and assist in the management of running a 5k race. Are you into wargaming? Work with your local game store to manage a tournament. Although you likely won't get paid for these activities, they will help you build on your project management expertise.
