Project management is the application of specific knowledge, skills, methodologies, and techniques aimed at achieving specific and measurable project goals including, ultimately, successful project completion.
“Have a bias towards action – let’s see something happen now. You can break that big plan into small steps and take the first step right away.”
– Indira Gandhi
A Gantt Chart is a visual used in project management to schedule, track, and communicate deliverables, deadlines, dependencies, and resource assignments.
The Critical Path Method is defined as a project management technique used to identify and prioritize the sequence of activities that determine the minimum time required to complete a project.
“Plans are only good intentions unless they immediately degenerate into hard work.” – Peter Drucker
Earned value is the accepted techniques for monitoring and tracking project progress. The concept of earned value revolves around these three measures:
•BCWS : Budgeted Cost of Work Scheduled
•ACWP : Actual Cost of Work Performed
•BCWP : Budgeted Cost of Work Performed (Also called the Earned Value)
In today’s fast-paced business environment, the ability to efficiently manage projects from inception to completion is a critical skill. Organizations that employ project management practices boast an impressive success rate in meeting project objectives. This highlights the impact that structured project management approaches can have on achieving desired outcomes
A project cycle gives a framework for planning the sequence of a project’s activities. The term “cycle” implies that there is an element of feedback, and the stages of Control and Modification/Update are largely composed of feedback. Feedback takes place at all other stages as well, even in the Planning stage. If there is a deficiency, then the process must be reviewed and revised. Just understanding the project management knowledge is not enough.
Project management is the application of specific knowledge, skills, methodologies, and techniques aimed at achieving specific and measurable project goals including, ultimately, successful project completion. This course gives participants a deeper understanding of project fundamentals tools and techniques like Work Breakdown Structure, Gantt Chart, Network Analysis and Earned Value Analysis.
This course cuts across the theory of Project Management with practical examples of learning the tools and techniques. This course will focus on the various tools and techniques of Work Breakdown Structure, Gantt Chart, Network Analysis and Earned Value Analysis.
