Course details
Most project managers, co-ordinators and contributors are ‘technical’ experts or specialists who perform in an Operational Management environment following classical hierarchical or functional structures. Assignment to project management can be an intimidating experience due to the internal and external pressures to succeed and a lack of project system knowledge.
Project Management Essentials is designed to give delegates a pragmatic introduction to the concepts and principles of managing projects. Participants will gain practical experience in proven techniques and discover a range of valuable, applicable tools that will contribute to the successful delivery of their projects.
