arya Duma, P.Eng. and Tim Dunn are project management
professionals as well as active participants of the
engineering community. Duma, who graduated from
University of Western Ontario with a Mechanical Engineering

training in project management and related topics. Duma gains her
project management experience from 15 years of working in the
elevator industry, working with a consulting company, then working

Tim Dunn, who graduated from Carleton University with a
Mechanical Engineering degree, is a Senior Program Manager with
40 years of experience managing multi-disciplinary, fixed price
commercial, aerospace and defense programs ranging from $30M
to $500M. Dunn held the role of Director of Programs at MacDonald
Dettwiler & Associates (MDA, formerly SPAR Aerospace) for eight
years, managing the Program Management Office with 12 direct
Project/Program Manager reports.
In partnership with OSPE, Duma and Dunn have created a course

role. Both Duma and Dunn experienced changes to the list of
