Kevin:
Did you mean to write PMP? I don't know what PPM is. Unless I am mistaken, PMP is the certification for Project Management Professional, which I currently hold. I am also attending a workshop this coming week to train and prepare for certification in Agile methods of Project Management. I hope to earn my ACM certification soon.
My experience as a professional, instructor and human being is that project management techniques help individuals identify, prepare and pursue their goals. I believe that a PMP is a value-add for professionals in many different organizations and industries.
