The course is designed keeping the PMI Standards in great concern to improve the competency of project management practitioners and for those who want to embark on the world of project management, whether to assess the benefits of the project-driven organization or to develop new skills, and is considering a foundation milestone in stepping towards more advanced courses such as CAPM or PMP.

This course provides in-depth Project Management Training and addresses how to identify, monitor, and balance information crucial for the successful management of projects. It will discuss the development of a baseline performance management plan (PMP) for the project that will allow the efficient compilation and the timely generation of quantitative performance comparisons. The comparisons highlight significant performance departures ("actual vs. baseline") and allow for preventive and early remedial and corrective actions.

The course will use Primavera and MS Project Professional to demonstrate how today’s available tools can be used to effectively manage projects data and provide visibility for important project performance data.
