How to move on from consultant to project manager?
Question:
Answer:
Take some project management theory training. Depending on your situation you can check out local colleges, training organizations such as IIL or ESI, and online courses.
Once you have some concepts, you'll probably want to try and take on an assistant project manager role - whether formally or informally. Or perhaps oversee a component of a larger project/program and then move into the project manager role when opportunities present themselves.
As you get more experience you might also want to look at getting a PM certification.
