Course Description

This course is designed for all professionals - not just those with "project manager" in their title. The 12-hour course is highly interactive - no death by PowerPoint! Team-based exercises center around the case study of a young couple building a house and planning a wedding.

This course covers:

• Key project management terms and concepts
• How projects are interconnected and interdependent within an organization
