Project Planning
Descriere curs:
- Description: In the early planning phases, project managers and team members have the most potential influence on the outcomes of a project. Yet, lots of planning does not guarantee successful planning. Just as project success can be planned, project disasters can be predestined if team members are not careful about the assumptions they make. A project management team that can balance the need for predictability with the inevitability of change will be the most prepared. According to the PMBOK® Guide - Third Edition, the Planning Process Group consists of the most processes--21 to be exact. The range of processes includes everything from developing a Project Management Plan, defining scope, and developing the schedule to planning for quality and identifying risks. All of these processes need to be skillfully handled with the understanding that the outcomes are not set in stone and that planning is an ongoing activity. Experienced project managers learn that meeting customer expectations is ultimately more important than having a project go "according to plan." In this course, learners will be introduced to the purpose of the Planning Process Group and its associated processes. They will learn how to answer such questions as, "what must be done, how should it be done, who will do it, how much will it cost, and how good does it have to be?" Each planning process will be briefly described so that the learner has a global understanding of the depth and breadth of this process group. With the knowledge gained from this course, learners can develop a repertoire of planning best practices to be used on the job. This course will assist in preparing the learner for the PMI® Project Management Professional (PMP) certification exam.. This course is aligned with "A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge" (PMBOK® Guide) - Third Edition, published by the Project Management Institute (PMI®), Inc., 2004.
