Project risk management is the 'radar' that enables your business to avoid obstacles, show-stoppers and major disasters!
Risk management is a well-recognised set of tools and methods that enables you to systematically identify project risks and then to respond appropriately. Responding to risks may mean reducing the chances that a specific risk will turn into an Issue that would hurt your project. It may mean putting recovery plans in place so that you can deal with outcomes effectively when risks do turn into real problems.

Some of the major challenges as a project manager revolve around the management of a project's scope. In this training course, you leverage industry best practices to plan and define a project's scope, collect useful requirements, develop a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), and deal with uncontrollable changes or continuous growth (a.k.a. scope creep).

There is a wealth of information on project management. But unfortunately, we have come to realise that only a small fraction applies to software project management. This course covers new practices and new ideas Project Managers ought to consider to make their software development projects succeed.
