Hon.
Prof. ( Dr. ) George Mentz, CEO / Dean / Board
of Standards General Counsel and Attorney at
Law,
The
American Academy of Financial Management (AAFM)
and The American Academy of Project Management
(AAPM)
Sub. : Letter of positive estimation for the
AAPM & AAFM.
Dear Sir,
In presenting this letter, I bring you very
warm greetings from the Hon. President of India
Mrs. Pratibha Patil and Hon. Prime Minister
Dr. Manmohan Singh, the Government and the people
of India. I must tell you that the pleasure
of carrying out this simple yet important task
is that much greater as the honor is from few
friends and for whom I have the highest personal
and professional regard.
Both AAPM & AAFM are unique having many
certifications to offer only for the learned
few who already have regular qualifications
and earned experiences. I do understand its’
concept. For awarding the certifications of
International Standards in Project Management
and Financial Management (the highest in the
world), the expert should take part in the decision
of global projects and finances, demonstrate
an originality of thinking and the creative
approach, and defend the dissertation or examination
on original projects and finances.
Dr. Mentz, India places the highest priority
on its relations with the AAPM & AAFM. As
an outstanding person with the big life experiences
which can be used at the tackling of global
projects and managing finances in India, I value
highly my election to the Fellow grade of AAPM
& AAFM and the Designation Certificate-licenses
of “MPM, MQM, MMC, CIPM, GPM, CPD and
MFP” from AAPM & AAFM, as well as
my fraternal relations with the fellow academicians,
awardees, individual members, researchers, professors
and patrons of AAPM & AAFM. Further, I am
grateful for being inducted to the esteemed
‘Honorary Global Advisory Committee’
by AAPM & AAFM. The AAPM & AAFM Scholarship
Initiative for the needy is impressive and very
much appreciated. Please keep up this cause.
It is my belief that cultural, educational,
economical, peaceful, scientific and social
progress can only be achieved and sustained
within the context of a healthy and vibrant
AAPM & AAFM, and I remain committed to every
action that will contribute to AAPM & AAFM’s
health and success.
Truly yours’,
Dr. N.C. Bhat
Honorary Adviser
