Overview

This intensive five-day course gives in-depth and comprehensive coverage of the key skills and knowledge required for effective project management as detailed in Association for Project Managements (APM's) "Body Of Knowledge".

It is delivered through a combination of facilitated lectures, practical exercises and interactive sessions, where delegates can raise their own concerns and contribute their own experiences of working on projects.

Real world examples are used to illustrate problems that may be faced in the working environment, and delegates are encouraged to draw upon their own experiences to further add to the learning experience. The topics, disciplines and enabling skills are progressively built upon and linked to the development of case studies worked on in a team environment to further delegates' personal skills. 

Objectives

The learning objectives of this course cover all the areas specified within the APMP Syllabus 5th edition. This will provide delegates with the ability at the level specified within the Syllabus to:

• Acquire the level of understanding needed to pass the APMP examination
• Be able to demonstrate the structure of a successful project
• Update their knowledge of project management principles and techniques
• Explain key factors in the project context that need to be taken into account
• Initiate a project and complete a business case
• Define a project strategy and produce a project management plan (PMP)
• Understand and appreciate the importance of effective planning and techniques used

• Control a project throughout implementation
• Complete the handover of project deliverables
• Conduct project closeout processes
• Support and contribute to a successful project outcome in their own working environment by performing the learning outcomes defined in the APMP Syllabus

Duration

The course is 6 days in total (4 day course, 2 day refresher and exam).  The four day course is followed approximately two weeks later by the refresher day and APMP examination, giving delegates the opportunity for additional study time and preparation. During this time our Facilitators will be on hand to offer guidance and further study materials if required.
