Project Management: Foundations and Best Practices – Online

This course takes place over four half-day sessions. Training Dates are November 8, 9, 15 and 16 from 8 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Overview:
This course introduces students to the foundations of successful project management, especially in a technology environment. Students will learn key project management concepts, then immediately apply them in a hands-on team simulation. This course approaches project management from the standpoint of managing a single, stand-alone project that is small to medium in size. It takes students through the project life cycle in the same sequence they would face when managing a real project in the workplace.

By the end of this class, you will understand how to manage a project from beginning to successful completion.

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
Explain the role and value of project management.
Recognize common causes of project success and failure.
Balance competing priorities.
Identify individual and team skills that affect the success of a project.
Initiate a project using chartering and a project kickoff.
