More and more work involves managing projects. This course will teach you how to define the project, stay focused on the project鈥檚 objectives, chunk the project into tasks, and keep it all within planned timelines. By taking into account both the human and technical sides of project management; you will learn the tools that allow for flexibility without resorting to a 鈥渟eat of the pants鈥 management style. Topics will include creating a project charter, scheduling tasks through a work breakdown structure and Gantt chart, developing a communications plan and analyzing team development and challenges.
Mar. 7 (0.5 day)
Many people are involved with small projects that basically involve "one person" doing all the work. This means that the typical Project Management course that focuses on a team approach to planning and implementing projects does not meet the needs of the one person implementer. This course will provide tips and techniques for organizing all your tasks. It will appeal to those who spend a lot of their time working on individual projects rather than large defined projects with a team of people.
If you have any questions about these workshops, please contact us at eod@dal.ca or call 893-5350.
