Detailed Course Outline:
Terminology
The training course will help you to become familiar with common project management terminology.
Project life-cycle
Good project management technique breaks down the project into distinct phases. The training course helps you to learn to break the project down into its separate phases and to learn what needs to be done in each phase.
What are the goals of the project?
Successful project management requires an understanding of the goals to be accomplished by the project. On our training course, you will learn how to identify goals and objectives.
Project Scope
Good project management identifies the boundaries of the project. The training course helps you learn why defining the project scope early means more chance of success later.
Project Constraints
All projects have constraints imposed on them. You will learn why it's important to document and understand these constraints to enable successful project management.
Stakeholders
Good project management techniques will fail if the project manager does not understand which people have an interest in the outcome of the project. Learn the importance of identifying and managing stakeholders throughout the project lifecycle.
Identifying the work
Learn the importance of clearly identifying the work to be done. During the training course, you will practise using common project management techniques such as creating Work Breakdown Structures to identify the work.
Roles & Responsibilities
Learn how to identify the roles and responsibilities of your project team members.
Estimating
Accurate estimations are critical on any project. Learn how estimation is a pitfall that many project management methods fail to overcome.
Scheduling
A critical project management technique made easier by software tools. You will learn to perform effective scheduling and practise creating Gantt charts as the key project management planning technique.
Critical Path Analysis
A crucial part of the project management toolset is the ability to analyse which tasks may delay your project. You will learn how to apply this critical technique to help you deliver on time.
Budgeting
No project management method is complete without an understanding of how to create and manage a budget. You will learn how budgeting is performed throughout the project lifecycle.
Project Planning
Learn how to write a formal project plan document that will set out the plan for the whole of the project.
Baselines
Setting baselines is an often misunderstood and overlooked component of effective project management. Understand why baselines are critical to project success and learn how to apply baselines to your project plans.
Tracking Progress
Effective project management doesn't finish with writing the project plan but continues throughout the project lifecycle. You will learn what things you will need to track in order to keep your project on track.
Managing Changes
Change is inevitable on any project and project management best practices require a project manager to manage these changes effectively. You will learn the best way to manage change without jeopardising your project.
Risk Management
Failing to manage risks properly is one of the main reasons why many projects fail. You will learn some key risk management techniques to help you avoid your project failing.
Project Success
An understanding of why project management best practices are essential to improve the chances of project success.
