COURSE DESCRIPTION
This 5-day highly interactive program teaches the basics of project management as outlined by the Project Management Institute (PMI) in its Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMBOK)®. As basic concepts and techniques are learned, participants are asked to work together to put them to work by developing a comprehensive project management plan. with component plans for schedule, cost, human resources, communications, risk, procurement, and quality management. At the end of each day, the participant will be ready to use the project management basics and best practices presented in that session.
Program components are:
Day 1 - Project Integration and Scope Management
Day 2 - Project Schedule Management and Project Cost Management
Day 3 - Project Human Resource Management and Project Communications Management
Day 4 - Project Risk Management
Day 5 - Project Procurement Management and Project Quality Management
The comprehensive project management plan and its component plans will include processes, tools, techniques, and sample forms for each step in project management planning. By the end of the program, the participant will have received a model Project Management Plan that can be used as a template for future projects.
At the conclusion of the program, each participant is given a comprehensive self-study guide that can be used to prepare for the PMP® certification examination.
