Fundamentals of Project Cost Control
2 days|Delivered on request
Fundamentals of Project Cost Control is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through resource planning and portfolio prioritisation 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 benefits realisation, project initiation and risk registers in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Spot where benefits realisation is failing before it becomes a finding, measured against PRINCE2
- Bring project initiation into line with current good practice
- Make a decision about risk registers without waiting for a specialist
- Take ownership of agile and scrum practice rather than escalating it
