Earned Value Management for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Earned Value Management for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through work breakdown structure and lessons learned without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because the coordination layer is usually the least trained and the most load bearing, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with quality assurance, critical path analysis and resource planning in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of quality assurance rather than escalating it, measured against the PMBOK guide
- Spot where critical path analysis is failing before it becomes a finding
- Put resource planning on a footing they can defend to a reviewer
- Review scheduling and say plainly whether it is working
