Course Overview
Project management involves initiating, planning, executing, controlling, monitoring and closing the work of a team to achieve specific goals and meet specific success objectives within a specified time.
Project management comes with very specific and prominent constraints of scope, time and cost. This trio is better known as the triple constraint of project management. The primary challenge of project managers is to meet project goals and objectives within the given constraints. Thus, planning and organization plays a major role in setting the path for a project to progress and get completed successfully.
Project management does not only involve planning for tasks and assignments within the timelines and costs assigned. A significant part of project management involves developing and maintaining good relationships with all stakeholders concerned with or contributing to some or the other aspect of the project.
Effectively managing partnerships and expectations of various stakeholders, business partners, team members, management, etc. contributes to the success of a project. Therefore, project management involves many aspects and skills that need to function together so that a project is successfully completed within the defined timelines, costs and objectives.
This course will empower you with complete understanding and knowledge of project management that will help you effectively plan and manage projects for your organisation.
The confidence and competence gained through this course will also help you overcome challenges and manage projects within timelines and costs and will enable you to set objective measures of performance of the project, in turn demonstrating your credibility and paving the way for further opportunities for growth and progression.
