This program is designed to equip managers with the knowledge, skills, and tools necessary to effectively plan, execute, and manage projects from initiation to completion. Participants will learn best practices in project management, including project planning, scheduling, budgeting, risk management, and stakeholder communication, to ensure that projects are delivered on time, within budget, and to the satisfaction of stakeholders.
Key Components
