About:



In this PMBOK-aligned course you will learn how to bring IT projects in on schedule and under budget. You will build a Project Charter & Definition which will define the project and serve as your agreement to set expectations with your sponsor and stakeholders. You will then learn in detail how to use the information from the Project Charter & Definition to estimate the project hours, duration and cost, resulting in a project plan that will allow you to successfully manage and report on project progress.



The ability to categorize & prioritize different types of requests and issues is vital to time management and control. You willl learn how to identify and run scope changes through the scope process. You will also learn that risks are those potential problems that typically show up as excuses during the project and review how to assess risk and monitor it during your project.



An introduction to Quality Assurance & Control Planning to measure and improve project management service levels and project deliverables will be given. Finally the steps in closing a project will be addressed – sign-off, gauge satisfaction, archive documents and produce Lessons Learned to continually improve the project process going forward. You will learn to incorporate best practices into real world projects. This workshop blends current information, case studies and project simulations to strengthen your IT project management skills. Students will be supplied templates to use in creating project management processes back at the office.
