Description
"Everything should be made as simple as possible. But no simpler." - Albert Einstein
*** Now includes a complete set of realistic, professional documentation for the project Magical Devices Version 3, including a Project Charter, Project Management Plan, and a document describing how to use Microsoft Office to prepare planning documentation. ***
Complexity is the main challenge in project management. Therefore the PM processes must be simple, and deeply practical. Based on 25 years experience managing projects from $250K to $55M, and experience in senior management roles on projects up to $3B, this course provides a deeply practical description of how to use the proven Project Management Institute (PMI®) best practices to help you manage your projects of any size, from any domain.
First an overview is provided of all the key project management concepts, and the critically important role of the Project Manager is explained. Then the project management processes are mapped across the time-line, and the specific actions you need to take and documentation you need to prepare at each step are explained in an easy to follow thread. The use of software tools to support the process is described. The course is end-to-end, divided into more than 200 bite size videos of just a few minutes long, and easy to understand.
If you have a project you need to manage right now, are pursuing a PMP or CAPM certification, or just wish to get a solid grounding in deeply practical application of the standard project management best practices, this course will really help. You will also earn 16 Professional Development Units (PDU's) - 9 Technical, 4 Leadership, 3 Strategic.
