Project Management Workshops
The workshop begins with a review of project management terminology so that students learn to speak the language of a project manager. Students will obtain a firm grasp of the different methods and strategies used in the field of project management. Moving deeper into project management theory, students will explore a five-stage model of project management that includes the following stages: Initiation, Planning, Execution, Monitoring, and Closing.
The initiation phase covers how to create a project charter for the project. Students will learn to identify needs, set a timeline, create a budget, and communicate with stakeholders in the planning phase. The execution phase covers identifying project range, budget, challenges, and risks. In the monitoring phase, students will explore ongoing project management tasks, and finally, the closing stage will discuss how to finish and transfer project deliverables.
This course is for entry-level project coordinators who aspire to become full-time project managers. Those with experience leading projects should consider attending our Project Management Level 2 course.
The course covers project management theory and concepts and not any project management software. See our Microsoft Project courses.

The methods covered in this course will apply broadly to a variety of industries, including financial services, consumer markets, healthcare, non-profits, and technology. Please note that the course does not focus on any vertical in particular.
Industrial (automotive, aerospace, energy, construction), and government project managers would benefit from the course although those industries require more specific training.
The class is broken into a series of mini-lectures, individual exercises, and team workshops. For example, individual exercises would consist of reading and analyzing case studies with follow-up group discussion. Team workshops include planning a project with class members with project baselines, scope, budget, and schedule.
