Dates: 16, 17 and 18 of October

Professional Project Management is designed to establish a detailed understanding of Project Management terms, concepts and methodologies. The hands-on approach of this course ensures trainees “learn by doing” and gain a step-by-step, real-time experience of using the tools and implementing the methodologies and support structures. In simulating real-life environments, trainees gather the detailed knowledge required to apply the training on return to their work environment.

Learning Objectives:
- Understand the purpose, inputs and outputs of the core processes in each of the five
process groups: Initiating, Planning, Execution, Control and Closing.
- Learn about the knowledge areas of project management (Integration, Scope,
Time, Cost, Quality, Human Resources, Communications, Risk, Procurement plus
Professional and Social Responsibility). Understand how each knowledge area
contributes to the progression of a project from start to finish, and know how to
create the key deliverables at each stage.
- Learn key project management techniques, together with how and when to use
them. Examples of such tools and techniques include Budget, Risk Analysis,
Scheduling, Gantt chart, Contingency and Change Control.
