    Here is what you will learn in Project Management Fundamentals: the practical, in-demand capabilities to plan, run and close projects. Across the two-day, 16-hour programme you build knowledge that maps directly to the five course modules and to how projects run at work.

    Build a Business Case and Define Success

    Justify a project with a clear business case and benefits, work within project constraints, and define what success actually looks like before work begins.

    Plan Scope, Schedule, Cost and Resources

    Estimate and plan scope, schedule, cost and resources realistically, so your projects start with achievable timelines and budgets rather than optimistic guesses.

    Manage Quality, Risk and Stakeholders

    Plan for quality, identify and respond to risk, engage stakeholders, and handle vendor management and procurement across the life of a project.

    Navigate Organisational Influences

    Understand how organisation structures, governance, policies and the PMO shape a project, and what the project manager's role and competencies really involve.

    What Our Learners Say About Us

    "Respective communication, steady pace of the class, not too fast but as well not too slow. A lot of space for open discussions and questionings. its not 5/5 because I believe the sessions consist of too much information for such short time. It could be organized in 1 more day, with less information per day, to have a better understanding."
