Advanced Project Management: Tools and Techniques
5 days|Delivered on request
This is a hands-on programme. Delegates spend most of the time working through quality assurance and benefits realisation on live scenarios rather than listening to theory about them. The practical emphasis is deliberate: most project failure is visible in the schedule long before it is admitted in the status report, and reading about the method has repeatedly proved insufficient. Delegates leave able to work confidently with project reporting, portfolio prioritisation and change control in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Improve project reporting within their own organisation, measured against earned value management
- Take ownership of portfolio prioritisation rather than escalating it
- Make a decision about change control without waiting for a specialist
- Bring project initiation into line with current good practice
