Course Overview

In an increasingly agile business environment, project management has emerged as a key managerial competency. This course aims to introduce participants to the nature, principles, tools and techniques of project management. It focuses on the foundational knowledge and skills necessary to achieve core goals of project management, namely, a balanced optimisation of project scope, cost, time and quality outcomes. As a foundational course, it draws from different methodologies, notably PMBoK standards and Prince2. Research shows a strong positive correlation between organisational project management capability and organisational performance. This course aims to facilitate access to entry-level project management roles.

Who is this course for?

Project management capability is vital for virtually all organisational types and job roles. This introductory course is designed for early-stage professionals or school leavers with no prior or formal training in project management. Whether working as an employee, a self-employed or an entrepreneur; and regardless of the organisational type or industry/sector, participants will find this course very useful in laying a solid foundation for more specialised project management education. In essence, it is for everyone seeking a stimulating and structured entry into the exciting, challenging and rewarding world of project management.

By the end of this course, you will…

Understand why project management matters, in any organisational context.
Apply practical PM tools and techniques to real workplace scenarios.
