5 About these courses Techniques for achieving 80% results with 20% effort This course has been designed to provide participants with an intensive two-day introduction to project management tools, techniques and methodologies. You will be taken through a project life cycle from project initiation to the close-out stage, with practical exercises reinforcing learning throughout. TRAINING METHODOLOGY The emphasis is on a practical, easy-to-follow process rather than a rigorous theoretical approach. This intensive two-day training programme will combine tutorial sessions with practical examples and course workbooks will be detailed so that participants can duplicate what is demonstrated at the seminar, back at their workplace. Maximising Productivity and Efficiency in a Multi-Project Environment No project stands in isolation. In most large organisations, the range of projects in operation at any one time means that prioritising and ensuring the most important projects get done is vital in meeting corporate goals. Some studies indicate that in the process of managing multi projects, a minimum of 20% productivity on each individual project is compromised. Manage your portfolio or program of projects effectively, and get that 20% back! Training methodology: This is a two-day course where 1.5 days are on project management principles and latest developments in managing multiple projects. The rest of the seminar will be an interactive show and tell of Microsoft Project. Course workbooks are extremely detailed so participants can duplicate what is demonstrated at the seminar, back at their workplace. Optimising Project Activities If scheduling is the practice of planning and communicating how a project will be successfully completed, then every project manager needs to know how to schedule effectively. * is a must attend course for anyone involved in looking to gain added value from their scheduling. Value-added schedules clearly show and communicate how the project will be successfully completed. This course teaches the scheduling skills and techniques needed to successfully deliver today s projects with added value scheduling. TRAINING METHODOLOGY This intensive one-day training programme will combine tutorial sessions with practical examples. All participants will be provided with a details workbook and certificate of completion. The course is tool agnostic, but Microsoft Project is used for demonstrations. All Scheduling techniques are relevant to any tool, such as Excel, Primavera, Project etc. though obviously some techniques are easier in some tools than others. *Course Pre-Requisites: A clear idea of schedule problem areas you need resolved Experience of working in projects Some skills in using a scheduling (Excel, MS Project etc) tool are useful but not required Phone (09) Fax (09) Internet register@conferenz.co.nz
