Overview

In today's technology-driven, fast-paced business environment, there’s no time for missed deadlines or outdated software. Effectively managing multiple projects and tight timelines is critical to your bottom line.

This seminar is based on the core knowledge areas of the Project Management Institute (PMI): Scope, Time, Cost and Integration Management — and it will go beyond these core features. It is appropriate for those who know the fundamentals but want to expand their toolkit with new techniques and metrics for planning and scheduling a project.

All projects are investments, funded and performed for the value they achieve. In this regard, project managers are responsible for maximizing the return on that investment. Using standard PMBOK® Guide techniques, enhanced by the techniques and metrics of Total Project Control, this seminar explores all the main tools of project scope and schedule development. This seminar is essential for professionals who need to develop project requirements and meet deadlines. At the end of this seminar, attendees will know how to tackle an assigned project: where to start, how to define the work, how to make estimates, and how to lead a team in developing a schedule
