Project Management Training

If you’re accountable for the management of projects, we can help you control and co-ordinate activities, and complete projects on time and within cost constraints.

Though control remains important in all forms of management, it has been recognised that managers, team leaders, and supervisors achieve effective results through the co-ordination of results achieved by other people. Project planning allows you to achieve both co-ordination and control through the efficient planning, effective implementation, and successful completion of a wide range of projects.

Most people are involved with a project and often business relies on the individual’s ability to manage different projects, often simultaneously. Unfortunately few people have been trained in project management techniques and many projects fail to reach a satisfactory conclusion, many are late over budget, or don’t meet requirements.

An effective project leader succeeds by developing the team and applying various tools and disciplines that suit the team and the project.

We discuss the projects you’re involved in and training areas you would like covered, then tailor the course to meet your needs.

This course is designed to equip participants with the knowledge, skills and confidence to enable them to manage projects successfully. The training will cover both the techniques (planning, prioritising, managing and mitigating risks) and the personal skills (communication, influence, motivation, inspiration, assertiveness and cooperation) necessary for a successful outcome.

We believe that learning should be enjoyable and interesting, and we use a training activities to embed learning, for example Roller Coaster Ball for planning and We Can Do Company for change management.

The course workbook is a valuable reference, covering all aspects of the course, packed with ideas, tips and practical examples.

Managers, project leaders and staff who are accountable for the successful management and completion of projects, or who need a clear understanding of key project roles and responsibilities, skills and tools.
