Programme Management for Non-Specialists

2 days|Delivered on request

Programme 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 critical path analysis and benefits realisation without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because most project failure is visible in the schedule long before it is admitted in the status report, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with project initiation, quality assurance and cost estimation in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

  • Make a decision about project initiation without waiting for a specialist, measured against PRINCE2
  • Improve quality assurance within their own organisation
  • Bring cost estimation into line with current good practice
