The course was initially developed as an introduction to project management for risk managers, but is equally useful and necessary for all interested in heaving a project management overview, without spending 35 hours on it.
This is also included in the longer Risk Management for Project Professionals course, so if you took that course you don't need it, unless you want to reinforce your learning.
The course includes video lectures and quizzes to test your knowledge, but also practical exercises presented in the WorkBook. These exercises are optional but highly recommended. So, if you want to build a project management foundation, this course is a good choice.
