Course Description
The effective management of projects is an essential skill in many workplaces. Correct control of the stages and different aspects of projects helps to increase the chances of projects being successful.
There are many tools and approaches to managing projects, from a simple ‘to-do’ list, to complex methodologies.
When a project is managed correctly it ensures that there’s a sound business reason for undertaking it, that it’s clear who’s involved in delivering the project, what the expected outcomes are, and how resources and risks will be managed throughout the project.
When it’s done poorly the project can risk suffering from feature creep, delays, going over budget, or not getting finished at all.
This Project Management course covers some of the common project management methodologies, setting goals, and actually achieving them, identifying the need for a project to be started, using key project management tools and much more.
