We can conduct a multi-day introductory training course which covers the fundamentals knowledge areas of project management as prescribed by the Project Management Institute (PMI). We shall do this in a practical and hands-on fashion that will leave your participants in no doubt as to the practical every-day value that project management can bring to your organisation.
A strong theme of this training will be the opportunity for participants to work on their own projects! This allows the learning to take place in a meaningful context, providing immediate relevance and motivation. In addition, your group will get some real work done, learning as they go.
With your advice about specific requirements, we can focus on areas such as project definition, scope development, scheduling, project control, risk, estimating among many others.
Or we can offer you more advanced training, assisting your organisation benefit from the simple but powerful techniques associated with project diagnostics, project crashing, the Theory of Constraints and much more.
