Project Management Courses for Beginners in NYC

This introductory course provides students with practical knowledge of the methods and strategies that comprise modern project management theory. Students explore the five-stage model of project management: Initiation (creating a proposal), Planning (setting timelines, creating a budget, and communicating with stakeholders), Execution (identifying and addressing issues with regard to project range, budget, challenges, and risks), Monitoring (maintaining project quality through ongoing tasks), and Closing (completing the project and transferring deliverables).

This class is a great fit for students that want an overview or review of project management theories, methodologies, concepts, and approaches.

Our Project Management courses are taught at our affiliate school, NYIM Training, in Midtown Manhattan.

Testimonials for Live Online Training

“Overall experience on Zoom was maybe even better than in IRL classroom because the instruction takes place right on your own screen, with less distraction. Great overall experience.”
“Given the fact that we had to do this entire class remotely due to Covid-19, I didn’t have very high expectations it would run so smoothly. However, I don’t think it could’ve gone any better. Not only do I feel very comfortable with the program now, but I’m actually excited to use it!”
“This was the first online class I’ve taken with ND and it was a great experience. Looking forward to the other classes I’ve signed up for!”
