Project Management Skills: Planning to Completion

Ensure that your projects are delivered on time, within budget and to the specified quality by applying sound project management practices.

The concept of project management has been around for a few decades now and its importance has only multiplied with time. Every business, organization, or agency will become involved in the need to create a new product, service, or result at some point in their existence. At times, the creation of these new products, services or results, can be overwhelming, which may result in the loss of direction and, ultimately, chaos. By applying sound project management practices, you can ensure that these projects are delivered on time, within the cost budget and to the specified quality. Effective project management can help your business in the following ways - stay on schedule; track expenses; better control and effective evaluation. This topic will provide you with a high-level overview of the entire project management process, as well as key project management tools that you can use every day. Working with project planning documents, such as needs assessments, risk management plan, and a communication plan will provide benefits throughout your organization.
