Management
|
|
Introduction
|
Those who are looking to
learn about the basics of project management, pick up some usable hints
and find ways of making basic project work will benefit greatly from
this one-day course, An Introduction to Project
Management. The course
details are given later in this section.

Other Courses
|
Staff working in any
industry who would like to learn sound project management skills and be
able to apply them in the process of running smaller projects
effectively. The Project Management
in Action course will give them these skills. Those who attend this
two-day course will learn tools and techniques that can be readily
applied in the workplace.
Staff working with
larger projects, and who will need to comply with the complexities of
larger or multiple teams will benefit from the third option,
Project Management Expanded. As
well as practical project management guidance, those who attend this
three-day course will also gain an insight into PRINCE2, the de-facto
standard for running government projects and a methodology favoured by
many blue-chip organisations.

Course Purpose
|
Businesses manage many
projects ranging in size from smaller projects where the project teams
are made up of individuals who often work together to reach common goals
to the more complex project where teams are made up of third party
contractors, specialists and individuals who will be drawn together in a
project environment for the first time.
Each course will result
in delegates being able to manage projects to the required standard,
while managing a balance between time and budgetary controls.

Solving the Dilemma
|
Every company has projects, some big, some small, but always important.
Sometimes a company will undertake something major such as a premises move,
the installation of a new computer system, or perhaps the winning of ISO
9000 accreditation.
Project failures are all too common.
Some make the headlines, but the
vast majority are quickly forgotten along with the reasons which are many
and varied.
This is where an experienced Project Manager can help.
If
your company have projects on the go, or intends to embark on a sizeable
venture it makes good sense to invest wisely. Training
your staff and allowing them to make a difference is the best solution.
These training courses will provide you and your organisation with the
solution you are looking for.
