Project Risk Management for Non-Specialists

Project Management|2 days|Classroom or live online

Project Risk 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 cost estimation and resource planning 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 project initiation, portfolio prioritisation and project reporting in their own organisation.

What delegates leave able to do

Improve project initiation within their own organisation, measured against PRINCE2
Make a decision about portfolio prioritisation without waiting for a specialist
Explain project reporting to someone who does not do the work
Spot where lessons learned is failing before it becomes a finding
