Project Cost Control for Non-Specialists
2 days|Delivered on request
Project Cost Control for Non-Specialists is built for delegates who need to be useful in this area quickly. It starts at first principles and works through project reporting and scheduling without assuming prior specialist training. The programme exists because organisations run more projects than they have capacity to govern, and because capability in this area is usually built on the job with no structure behind it. Delegates leave able to work confidently with stakeholder communication, resource planning and portfolio prioritisation in their own organisation.
What delegates leave able to do
- Take ownership of stakeholder communication rather than escalating it, measured against PRINCE2
- Improve resource planning within their own organisation
- Review portfolio prioritisation and say plainly whether it is working
- Bring critical path analysis into line with current good practice
