Effective Project Management (2 days + optional day)

Project Management has become today's essential process for achieving results and creating change. This two-day course combines the skills of planning and controlling multiple activities. It is about maintaining focus on successful outcomes and customer needs, handling risk and encouraging new thinking. At its heart are effective communications and an equally effective approach to solving problems.

Project Management is a fascinating mixture of special techniques, personal influence and common sense. The course involves a range of individual and group activities, including a training project through which you will be able to try out the steps and techniques covered in the course. There is an optional day 3 - which includes a review of how well the ideas covered in days 1 & 2 have been successfully applied to the delegates' project work.

Who would benefit most?

The course is suitable for anyone who is currently involved (or may become involved) in managing projects of any size. It will help create a framework for managing projects within any organisation, as well as acting as a challenging refresher for those with past experience of project management.
