Why this course exists
To develop project management skills with method, a common language and application capability, while also supporting preparation for the certification exam.
In many organisations, project management “exists” but fails in critical areas: common language, prioritisation and governance, realistic planning, stakeholder management, control and evidence, and integration between predictive, agile and hybrid approaches.
The PMP® exam is associated with project management, leadership, process and business environment competencies. The course helps participants consolidate knowledge and practice in the main areas assessed, through a structured preparation approach.
