Is Self Made PM affiliated with PMI or AI vendors?

Self Made PM and The Project Brain are independently authored. They aren't affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, OpenAI, or any other company mentioned on the site. A similar independence notice appears in the footer of every page.

AI vendors

The book and blog teach with specific tools, mainly Claude, along with Google Gemini, ChatGPT, Claude Code, and VS Code. Those tools are featured because they're useful for the workflows being taught, not because of any sponsorship or partnership. Product names belong to their respective owners.

This also means the site can't help with your account, billing, or access for any of these tools. Contact the provider directly for those. For how the tools are used, see Which AI tools do the blog articles cover?

PMI and certifications

The site isn't affiliated with the Project Management Institute (PMI), and it isn't a PMI Authorized Training Partner. Certification names such as PMP and ACP are mentioned only to describe widely known credentials and practices.

The material is taught by an ACP & PMP certified professional. That's a statement about the instructor's credentials, not a partnership with PMI. Some blog articles and videos cover topics that appear in PMP and ACP study, such as Risk Register and Response Strategies: A PMP Guide, but the site isn't official exam preparation.

Amazon and YouTube

• The book is sold on Amazon, which handles orders, delivery, and Kindle access.
• Videos are hosted on YouTube. On this site, YouTube's player loads only when you click play on a video.

Using those platforms doesn't mean they endorse the site.
