Communication is important to understand the processes & information needed from each department in order to operate productively and efficiently. - Luis Rivera Supervisor HIMA Hospital Caguas The Project Management Program for me and my employees has been an enriched experience for my starting business combined with the supporting alliance of the Caguas Incubator & the SBTDC business planning program, I really appreciate the guidance. -Yoel Rodriguez Ultimate Solutions Inc.
