But while it is generally accepted that these three may slip, and frequently do, Quality requirements are much more demanding. Quality failures can lead to ballooning project costs and delays, and to hefty penalties and litigation if errors are not discovered and corrected on time. On the other hand, good quality of both deliverables and work processes ensure customer satisfaction, repeat business, and an improved work environment for all project participants and stakeholders.<br
/>This course will follow the presentation of Project Quality Management processes and tools from the recently released 6th Edition of PMI&#39;s PMBOK Guide, but enhances it with actual industry cases and experiences. An additional section covers effective, Lean based methods to enhance cross-discipline collaboration, drive quality improvements, and lead to more efficient project execution.<br
/>The material is geared primarily towards projects resulting in physical deliverables, such as civil, mechanical and electrical construction and major maintenance projects. Due to time limitations we will not be discussing the specialized Quality methods applicable to more intangible areas such as software development or product design.<br
/>This course should be of interest to all professionals involved in project planning and execution, or in technical areas often involved in assessing the quality of project deliverables. It should also provide valuable insights and a fresh perspective to Quality professionals involved in Project Quality assurance and control.<br
/>Our courses will help you gain the required knowledge and to practice the concepts and tools so you can confidently apply this knowledge upon returning to your project or workplace. The appropriate blend of instructor expertise, peer interaction, and course structure will keep you on track and allow you to meet your goals.<p>Cost: 2870 USD</p><p>Duration: 5 Days</p>					]]>				  </description>				  <pubDate>Tue, 03 Mar 2020 17:48:51 +04</pubDate>				</item> 								<item><title><![CDATA[Certified Six Sigma Black Belt  - LEORON Professional Development Institute , Dubai ]]></title><link>https://courses.laimoon.com/course/certified-six-sigma-black-belt-leoron-professional-development-institute/online</link>				  <description>				  <![CDATA[						The Certified Six Sigma Black Belt (CSSBB) is a professional who can explain Six Sigma philosophies and principles, including supporting systems and tools.

The failure rate differs among studies, but even the most optimistic puts the failure rate at 50% with some studies showing as high as 90%. One of the primary reasons for strategy implementation failure is poor project investment selection and poor organizational focus. This results in significant waste and ineffective use of precious assets and resources. Confronting the issue of investment selection and prioritization as well as limited resources, organizations must work "smarter" by focusing their limited resources on the most important and highest priority endeavors. PMI&trade; created the PfMP&reg; credential mainly focused on addressing this major gap in organizational project management. Portfolio management is commonly viewed as the apex of the project management professional ladder. Portfolio managers often plan mid-to upper level leadership roles, working with business executives to influence and determine project investments.

Organisations around the world are implementing formal project management processes and disciplines to deliver their work initiatives on time, within budget and to an agreed upon level of quality. Part of the ability to execute better, faster and cheaper comes from the ability to implement common processes and practices across your entire organisation. When that happens there is no learning curve for the project manager and the team members as they transition from one project to another. Many organisations have accomplished this through a centralised organisation that is responsible for developing and deploying the common project management methodology.<br>These groups are often referred to as a "Project Management Office (PMO)", "Project Office" or "Project Management Centre of Excellence".

/>For the last decade, Organizational Development has been gradually taking over from HR and as a result, HR staff have had to acquire new skills. HR is no longer a subject on its own and companies are integrating it more into their overall strategic direction, which is why this course includes subjects such as Change, Leadership, Problem Solving, Decision Making, Teamwork, Emotional Intelligence, Motivation etc.<br
/>&nbsp;Furthermore, it is now a core subject in all MBA programmes at Universities. Within the next few years it has been widely predicted that HR Departments will become an integrated function of Organisational Development Departments.

/>The LEED guides propose a series of design and performance strategies to be implemented in a structure with the purpose of addressing the environmental impact issues as well as the operation and maintenance costs related to excessive consumption of energy, potable water and materials. It also aims to improve the interior environment of buildings to promote the production, use and welfare of the occupants and the surrounding community.<br
/>To maximize the results of the application of the strategies proposed by LEED, the scheme is based on propitiating the synergy between the diverse systems existing in a structure. This theory seeks to create closed cycles where the product of one process turns out to be the input of another. The proposal seeks to combine well-known strategies with modern technology to address the life cycle of a building. In addition, LEED provides metric tools that allow evaluating the most productive way to apply these strategies seeking their implementation from an integrated and iterative planning.<br
/>The LEED Green Associate credential demonstrates knowledge and non-technical skills to understand and support strategies, ideas and practices that form the basis of sustainable construction, as well as the critical points of the operation and maintenance of structures, specifically related to the LEED program.<p>Cost: 2270 USD</p><p>Duration: 3 Days</p>					]]>				  </description>				  <pubDate>Wed, 26 Feb 2020 11:46:42 +04</pubDate>				</item> 								<item><title><![CDATA[Sustainability Facility Professional  - LEORON Professional Development Institute , Dubai ]]></title><link>https://courses.laimoon.com/course/sustainability-facility-professional-leoron-professional-development-institute/online</link>				  <description>				  <![CDATA[<p>Going for High Performance?

For example, in Saudi Arabia, laws and Royal Decrees in 2019 substantially expanded the definition of &quot;public official&quot; with regard to public-sector bribery, made private-sector bribery a crime, criminalized bid-rigging and other anti-competitive or corrupt practices in relation to public tenders, and substantially increased penalties for New Competition Law violations.

If the inputs are nonsensical, the valuation output will unquestionably be nonsensical. For this reason, a large section of this course is devoted to understanding and modeling valuation inputs including adjustments to financial statements.<br
/>This intensive three-days workshop offers in-depth and practical analysis of the different valuation techniques that can be used to value different entities. It will also examine the use of real options modeling that are used to value patents, contracts, natural resources and for various other applications. The workshop will focus on the framework that can be used to pick the right model for any task and it will also extensively expose delegates to the modeling of various real life valuation cases.<br
/>Companies are valued for the purposes of investment, mergers and acquisitions or as part of internal measures of financial control. There are many different approaches to the valuation of companies and it is paramount to know when and how to apply what method. It is also essential to understand that company valuation is not an absolute science but also based on interpretation and judgment. In the broadest possible terms, firms or assets can be valued in one of four ways: asset based valuation approaches, discounted cash flow valuation approaches, relative valuation approaches and option pricing approaches.<br
/>The concepts and models taught are designed to be of practical benefit to attendees and are immediately usable in the workplace. This highly practical course will lead you quickly from the basics through the more advanced valuation methodologies and modeling techniques.<br
/>The hundreds of participants who attended this course in different parts of the world indicate that they gained valuable knowledge and experience that will greatly assist them in their careers. Due to the outstanding success of this course, the presenter was asked to develop Valuation II to show more applications.

Historical accounting records are essential but are not enough for managers to make informed strategic operational and financial decisions. Management&#39;s pre-defined goals should be filtered down into budgets, forecasts and plans of action. Most of the mid-sized companies and almost the entire large corporates engage in some forms of budgeting, planning and forecasting.<br
/>However, many are characterized by being not dynamic or interactive which may negatively impact the decisions<br
/>made by top management. Making the right decision in such an atmosphere is easier when there is a clear view on what the future will bring. The future, however, may be predicted only from the moment when a good understanding of the past has been achieved; fast-changing business conditions call for agile planning, budgeting and forecasting.<br
/>This 5-days intensive event is targeting those responsible for the preparation of budgets, plans and forecasts and those<br
/>who are using them as well. The course will start with some exceptionally important advanced Excel tips that will be utilized during the course. All of these tips coming together will orchestrate professional models that are dynamic and interactive.<br
/>Very advanced tools like Monte Carlo simulation using Crystal Ball in Excel and PowerPivot (that is introduced recently in Excel) will be an inherent part of the program. When it comes to planning for the future in any organization, the biggest problem is how to account for uncertainty. Strictly (in financial terms), uncertainty is where there is more than one possible outcome to a course of action; the form of each possible outcome is known, but the probability of getting any one outcome is not known. It is a challenge to quantify uncertainty because it is on not an observable variable rather one that is deduced from others. However given a complete range of possible outcomes, one can make decisions that reduce this uncertainty. Monte Carlo simulation gives the power to solve a problem by directly simulating the underlying process and then calculating the possible results of the process with varying degrees of probability.<br
/>You will learn how to develop Power Pivots that can handle data of up to 200 million rows of data on a standard desktop or laptop computers knowing that normal pivot tables in Excel usually choke after about 30,000 rows of data or so. In addition, there are numerous other features in PowerPivot that will enrich the analysis of your data. For example, a powerpivot can read data from different ranges which is something a normal pivot table cannot accomplish. A professional case study will examine the interactions within a powerpivot example that will be a guide of something that can be implemented upon the completion of the course.<br
/>The course is very hands on and practical in nature. That is what the trainer has been renowned for in different countries around the world. Please bring your laptop with Excel 2010 or higher. Powerpivots don&#39;t work on Excel 2007.<p>Cost: 5670 USD</p><p>Duration: 5 Days</p>					]]>				  </description>				  <pubDate>Thu, 09 Feb 2017 17:50:37 +04</pubDate>				</item> 								<item><title><![CDATA[Certificate in Leadership Thinking  - LEORON Professional Development Institute , Riyadh, Almaty, Kuala Lumpur, Stockholm, Dubai, Goeteborg, Jeddah,Dubai,France ]]></title><link>https://courses.laimoon.com/course/certificate-in-leadership-thinking/online</link>				  <description>				  <![CDATA[						As the pace and nature of change increases globally, the complexity of solving problems is becoming a critical competence for leaders.

An array of proven analytical techniques and management processes are now available to deal systematically with the most pressing issues confronting the managers of physical assets. Many of these techniques overlap and therefore need to be applied in a coherent and efficient manner.<br

It is used to decide what must be done to ensure that any physical asset, system or process continues to do whatever its users want it to do. The RCM2 process seeks to identify a suitable failure management policy for dealing with each failure mode in the light of its consequences and technical characteristics. The RCM2 process provides precise criteria for deciding how often routine tasks should be done.<br
