Time Management for Projects Workshop

1 day, 7 PDU course

COURSE DESCRIPTION
Do your projects constantly miss their deadlines and milestones?  Always running late to the project completion date?

In this course the participants will focus on one of the nine knowledge areas of project management, Time Management.  Time Management is the process by which project teams determine the schedule to be used to successfully meet the project completion date.

In order for the schedule of the project to be properly defined it is necessary to interface with the key stakeholders of the project.  By no means is the project schedule to be developed "in a vacuum."

This course is designed to give you a working knowledge of Time Management for projects.  You will be able to use these concepts the very next day on your projects thus giving you the edge over your competition.

This course follows the best practices for Project Time Management as outlined in the Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide®) from the Project Management Institute (PMI®)

This Time Management for Projects workshop is interactive. It includes small group exercises, large group discussions, and instructor explanations.
