Applied project management

Projects are not a new concept, but today they are more common than ever. We are faced with an increasing number of situations where we can benefit from collaborating across traditional boundaries and making use of each other’s strengths and differences. But there are pitfalls! Often projects are started with no clearly defined roles, authorization, goals or resources.

Applied project management is a concentrated basic course that gives you a holistic view of project work. The focus is your role as project manager, with emphasis on simple, practical tools you can use in your work. The entire project workflow is discussed, with particular emphasis on the preparation phase.
