Purpose

Our Project Management Techniques training course fills a gap in project management training curriculums: it helps adapting popular frameworks to create or maintain organization-specific implementations of project management best practices. Instead of theory and exam preparation, the focus is on the application of the various techniques using a workbook with templates to immediately enhance practical management of the participants’ own projects. It also helps participants in applying PRINCE2, PMBOK or any other method in practice by connecting theoretical knowledge and adapting best practices to create or improve company specific techniques, templates and activities.

Our customized training courses are adapted to the requirements of our customers to fulfill previously defined and agreed learning objectives. They consist of candidate or manager interviews, pre-reading, short theoretical modules followed by practical assignments and group exercises. There are follow-up sessions a few months after the classroom session. Though the content of some courses is linked to internationally recognized best practice frameworks like PMBOK, ITIL©, M_o_R© or PRINCE2©, it is not a prerequisite to hold any of these certificates and these courses are not intended to prepare to these exams. They rather focus on the behaviors and techniques of applying knowledge, skills or best practice frameworks in practice.
