This introductory course will provide you with practical knowledge of the methods and strategies that comprise modern project management theory.
After an overview of the process, we’ll focus on the first two phases (Initiation and Planning) in greater depth. While learning about the Initiation phase, you will be both identifying and selecting projects. You will learn how to create a project charter and how to compose a project scope document.
Then, you’ll look into the Planning phase, where a large degree of project success is determined. In the first part of the Planning phase, you’ll learning about creating diagrams and charts while learning the value in interpreting them. In the second part, you will gain technical experience by using strategy to determine such concepts as float and resource management.
We’ll conclude with discussion on project managers and what it takes to become a successful one. Learn about the most relevant skills and traits, discuss the vital importance of delegation, and the best strategies for managing change.
This one-day workshop concludes with a brief overview of Project Management software/apps, Project Management associations, and Project Management certifications. You’ll receive a slide deck that contains both practical knowledge along with a variety of exercises. This class is a great fit for those who want an overview or review of project management theories, methodologies, concepts, and approaches.

I love the level of content covered - a comprehensive overview, but very thorough. I feel like I came away with concrete things I can apply to projects right away.
Thorough, inclusive, interactive. Great for beginners, but still informative and thorough enough for professionals more familiar with Project Management methodologies. I'm looking forward to implementing these methods in my day-to-day work!
It was a great class that focused on the first two phases of project management, and it gave me an understanding of what I need to prepare/expect when I start my own projects. I like that there are 2 parts of this course, which I definitely plan on taking in the near future!
I highly recommend this class to anyone looking to advance their career or just stay on top of what's going on in the business world.
The materials were clear, and the instructor was great!
The overall experience was very satisfying and surpassed my expectations.
This class was a great introduction to Project Management.
