Rita Mulcahy has died. Author one of the most widely used preparation for the PMP certification exam as compared to PMI - including dozens of books and study materials of Project Management -, died last Saturday May 15, due to a cancer that had been fighting for 5 years. Despite that, he worked with relish to close issues, designing products and further grow your business. . was 50 years old, a husband (vice president of his company, RMC Project Management ) and two sons, aged 7 and 5 years of age. It is a great loss to the profession, that surprised by his devotion to hard work and enormous creativity. Read a book, watch a presentation, answer a question of simulation concocted by Rita, was a treat concurrent with the knowledge and pleasure.

The vast majority of PMP's we knew it and felt like a very familiar. We had brought with her a relationship to distance. His presence was almost bodily in our lives is that "Aunt Rita" (as we call my partner) was one of those people that seemed almost close relatives. During the time we prepare for the exam and then consulting for our classes, contact with his wisdom was (is) everyday.
.
No course that does not name. My students know Aunt Rita, their advice, their grievances "specious" their "PMIsmos." We laughed and sometimes we angry at their exam questions. All learning left even the most "tricky" (no more than the most tricky!).

Aunt Rita: you will be missed. ------------- RIP
copy, then the announcement of his death at the site of his company:
Rita Mulcahy, Founder of RMC Project Management and the project management best-selling author of all-time, Passed away on Saturday, May 15th 2010, from complications related to a five-year battle with Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC). She was 50. Rita leaves behind husband Tim Mulcahy, current Vice-President and Chief Legal Counsel for RMC, and two children, ages 7 and 5.
Rita was diagnosed with Stage 4 Inflammatory Breast Cancer in September of 2005, just days before two scheduled speaking appearances at PMI Global Congress in Toronto, Ontario. Given only months to live, Rita spent the next five years privately fighting her disease with a continuous regimen of both Western and Holistic treatments. During that time she continued to work, authoring five more best-selling books—including one with Fortune 100 leader Cisco Press—and delivering classes and keynote speeches across the globe. She also spent a great deal of time growing her business, and over the last five years watched RMC expand its training and product distribution to nearly 50 regions worldwide.
After her diagnosis, Rita worked feverishly to build RMC into one of the fastest-growing training organizations in the industry. Today, her thriving company is filled with some of the most sought-after experts in the fields of instructional design and delivery, learning development, and educational technology. Going forward, the Management Team at RMC will continue to leverage Rita's marketing-leading methodologies and learning techniques to develop more award-winning products, classes and e-learning courses in Project Management and numerous other related disciplines.
Even though Rita is no longer with us on a day-to-day basis, her unique and highly effective teaching style will live on through the hundreds of thousands of products and courses RMC delivers worldwide each year. In 2010, the Project Management industry lost its most passionate leader, advocate and friend. We will feel her loss every single day.
