Project Management for the Unofficial Project Manager

Course Description

When a project is poorly navigated and falls short of goals, it can cost you more than just money, it can cause irreparable damage to reputation, confidence, and client trust. The answer isn’t just dedicated project managers but instilling your entire team at every level with project management abilities. This course distills robust processes from the Project Management Institute and delivers key principles and processes to equip people with the skills for consistent project success.
