Module Summary
|
A
project is a temporary endeavor undertaken to create a unique product,
service or result. Managing projects is different philosophically and
fundamentally than managing a department, a manufacturing line, or a
service center. Since there is a fixed start and end point to the
project, there are significant timing implications. Project managers
may not have direct control over their resources, so motivation and
people skills become even more important. This course will provide a
basic understanding of the project life cycle, the project management
process, and basic tools and techniques that can be implemented right
away in a project environment. It will also provide a foundation for
learning about more advanced project management concepts and methods. |
