Project management has evolved from a management philosophy restricted to a few functional areas and regarded as something nice to have to an enterprise project management system affecting every functional unit of the company. More and more companies are now regarding project management as being mandatory for the survival of the firm. Almost all of today’s executives are in agreement that the solution to the majority of corporate problems involves obtaining better control and use of existing corporate resources, looking internally rather than externally for the solution. As part of the attempt to achieve an internal solution, executives are taking a hard look at the ways corporate activities are managed.
Project management is one of the techniques under consideration. The project management approach is relatively modern. It is characterized by methods of restructuring management and adapting special management techniques, with the purpose of obtaining better control and use of existing resources.
Project management is a simple, logical and easy to use management style and has been recognized as the most appropriate form of management for the new generation of managers. As the use of projects becomes more pervasive, so more managers are entering the field of project management. Their success will be helped by their ability to develop a fully integrated information and control system to plan, instruct, monitor and control large amounts of data, quickly and accurately to facilitate the problem-solving and decision-making process.
Successful project management is about getting the job done on time, within budget and to the client’s required specifications. This course will systematically cover the main activities performed by a project manager from inception to completion as well as the techniques required during the project life cycle to achieve these objectives.
The course will outline the latest planning and control techniques used by industry, commerce, sport and domestic projects, and particularly those used by the project planning software and referred to in the Project Management Institute’s (PMI) project management body of knowledge (PMBOK), and the Association of Project Manager’s (APM) body of knowledge (bok).
This course is designed to take you step-to-step through the latest planning and control techniques, particularly those used by the Project Management Software and the Project Management Body of Knowledge (both APM’s bok and PMI’s PMBOK). The course is in line with the PMI knowledge requirements and with the relevant experience will enable the participant to apply to the PMI for acceptance to their examination for the PMI-PMP registration .(Details of the full PMI requirements are available on the PMI web-page, www.pmi.org )
The course is carefully developed to reflect the best practices that also match the training requirements of distinguished professional organizations such as the Project Management Institute (PMI) and FIDIC. The Professional Development Units/Hours (PDUs) or Continuing Education Units (CEUs) awarded to our participants are recognized by the Project Management Institute (PMI) and by the International Association for Continuing Education & Training (IACET-USA).
The recognition and acceptance of our PDUs/CEUs fall under Categories E, F and G of PMI’s “Professional Education” section at the PMP Application. Hence, what the delegates simply need to do is to complete this section as part of the PMP Application and submit it to PMI upon the receipt of Haward’s certificates and ANSI/IACET’s CEUs. PMI will automatically accept the delegates with 30 Contract Honors as a fulfillment of the required Professional Education.
Haward Technology, being the first Authorized Provider of the International Association for Continuing Education & Training (IACET-USA) in the Middle East, is authorized to award ANSI/IACET CEUs that are automatically accepted and recognized by the Project Management Institute (PMI).
