SUMMARY:Project Management
DESCRIPTION:Project Management \nSeptember 13 – November 22\, 2025 (5 sessions) \nProjects usually fail not from poor technical skills or limited task knowledge\, but from inadequate management. Project managers must define projects\, identify project scope\, time and costs\, and employ tactical leadership skills to successfully develop and complete projects. In this course you will gain the project management skills necessary to deliver predictable outcomes to your company and your customers while also learning the methodological tools and vocabulary to pass the PMP exam. \nDo you wish you could anticipate project problems before they happen? Do you want to learn how to develop thorough strategies for implementation and risk management? Do you want a globally recognized credential that certifies your management abilities to help you advance your career as an organizational leader? \nProject Management (PM) is one of the world’s most in-demand skill sets and one of the fastest growing professional disciplines. Training in PM is globally recognized as a critical asset for managers working in a range of industries\, from health care to aerospace to information technology. PMP certification salary statistics show that this certification is well worth the effort for many professionals. According to PMI\, non-certified project managers in the U.S. earn a median annual salary of $93\,000. PMPs earn a median wage of $123\,000 per year—a 32% increase over their non-certified colleagues. \nThis five-day course will provide you with the skills needed to more effectively and efficiently develop and implement organizational projects\, as well as provide you with the necessary preparation to pass the PMP Certification. This course is based on the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK) developed by the Project Management Institute. You will learn the step-by-step PM methodology for delivering projects on time using advanced techniques for scheduling\, estimating\, budgeting\, optimizing project plans and team building. You will learn to lead improvement initiatives that result in measurable growth on return on investment\, sales\, and customer and employee satisfaction.
