Key Learning Units:
Unit 1 - Genesis
In the beginning…This unit looks at a consistent process to identify key players and understand their roles in the project; clarify exactly what the project is to achieve; define the scope of the project, and; get sign off from the project sponsor for the project parameters.
Unit 2 – Design
This unit focuses on the requirements for a detailed design by which the outcomes of the project are managed. The design is separated from the planning process to ensure that it receives an adequate focus and clear attention. Often the design component of a large assignment may be a project in itself.
Unit 3 - Execution Plan
This key unit explores the use of Objective Driven Logic to graphically map out the project tasks, dependencies, timeframes and costs, using a unique set of project tools and systems. The execution plan can then be transferred into appropriate software to manage the activity.
Unit 4 - Project Execution
Managing the uncertainty of project delivery is the focus of this unit. Aspects such as handling scope, resourcing and financial changes during execution are covered as well as how to ensure team motivation and commitment are maintained until project completion.
Unit 5 - Project Review stages
This unit looks at one of the most overlooked areas of project management, the learning review. We look at 3 distinct reviews that will ensure that the assignment successes and learning’s will be a building block for future projects.
