Project & Programme Management (PRM 9001)

Programme Overview Recognise when a project needs to be managed as a specific, rather than an ongoing activity. The failure to do so can be costly on both your time and your bottom line. This programme is designed to enhance participants’ skills in providing effective strategies and practical tools and techniques for the management and development of public and private sector programmes and projects. These tools and techniques are designed to be highly flexible and wideranging in order to meet organisational needs across the project and programme spectrum, from relatively simple performance improvement projects through to complex multi-million pound national capacity-building programmes.

Programme outline • How to initiate and scope projects, aligning them to strategic organisational and programme goals • How to manage single and multiple streams and relatively straightforward through to more complex programme and projects • Project appraisal; how to forecast requirements, source funds and effectively manage finances, ensuring transparency and accountability • How to select and apply relevant methods and techniques of effective project planning, scheduling, supplier management, logistics and control including PRINCE 2 and Project Gateway methodology • The role of project management software applications • Using Microsoft Project to create and configure the required outputs of the project plan • Using Microsoft Project to track project progress • How to conduct feasibility studies, assess and manage risks • Effective quality management of programmes and projects.
