Course Type: Non - Certification
Duration: 2 Days
Professional Development Unit (PDU): 14
Availability: In-House Training | Public Training
Course Overview
Experts say that Project Management is an essential skill for anyone who works in an organization. It doesn’t matter if the organization is big or small, there are always some projects going on. Of course, not everyone needs to be an expert project manager, but a clear understanding of the fundamentals of project management and experience in some of the core concepts makes a big difference.
“The Project Management Experience” is an interactive program for people involved in projects now or in the future. The program teaches the participants the essential skills needed to be effective on a project.
This program is UNIQUE because we use a special SIMULATION TOOL to let the participants experience how it is to run a project.
The SIMULATION TOOL creates a very lifelike project on the computer and the participants need to make sure the project gets done within schedule and budget.
During the program, participants, in small groups, will have to plan and execute a project by using a computer simulation. The group that stays closest to the budget and schedule will be crowned as the champion.
