l) Educational Licenses, Accreditation, and State Sanction.
The IPMC does not claim to be a college or university nor does it
claim accreditation from any 501 bodies, state, or federal government
agency or body. The IPMC is not a 501c3 organization and never has
claimed to be a tax free or charitable entity. The IPMC may engage
in business with charitable organizations or form alliances with charities
that operate under 501 but the IPMC operates as a responsible, growing,
proprietary, growth oriented, and profit oriented association and
company. The IPMC is an independent authority similar to other American
Associations. The IPMC grants certificates, certifications, marks,
designations, and charters much like hundreds of other legal educational
and recognition institutes or associations in the United States. The
IPMC strictly follows the criteria of the Ibanez decision in the United
States. We encourage all members and certified members to meet all
requirements for education, experience, testing, ethics, and continuing
education. The IPMC licenses its marks and logos to others. The marks
are generally licensed to individuals. The IPMC will license the IPMC
and other marks and logos to companies, universities, or other uses
upon the consent of its board. The IPMC outsourses to other companies
for training and education that is provided online. The IPMC does
not collect money for the courses, provide the service, teach the
class, enter into a contract with the student. THe company providing
the education and training is simply using our site as a distribution
point. THe IPMC may receive a referral fee, rebate, revenue share,
or other payments for providing the website that afforded the sale
of the service to the customer. In sum, you accept that we are not
responsible for the performance of any education or training contract.
We do not hold any of your private information that you submitted
to the training, course, or education provider although directory
infomation may be exchanged. This information is limited to email
address, phone number, name, employer, educational degrees and background.
As project management is a relatively new field, it
is impossible for any association to have been in this field for any
significant length of time. With this in mind, new and growing fields
of study and practice should be given the opportunity to grow and
flourish without government interference. IPMC claims no government
sanction or alliance. IPMC has formed legal relationships with professors,
college organizations, university groups and independent training
associations and facilities. As accreditation is generally not operated
by any government body, The IPMC is self governing and our members
and certified members are self governing through our regulations,
ethics, and continuing education, and standards much like lawyers,
accountants, or financial planners.
The IPMC is not in the business of accreditation of
colleges universities or schools. Call the AACSB if you desire accreditation
or call the Department of Education.

no liability as to the skill and expertise of a member or certified
member. These members are operating independently of our group and
have been awarded membership and certification purely based on their
submissions to us that have assured us that they have met the standards
that the IPMC requires. If a member is in fact not qualified, the
general public has a duty to notify the IPMC as to the certified members
skill and the IPMC can have a hearing or review and notify the member
