Course Overview
The accidental project manager complete guide.
Hello and welcome friends,
We all sometimes end up being a Project Manager unintentionally. You are responsible for delivering a product and given a budget or money allocated to complete the job. This sounds like the accidental project manager (PM). In real life, there is mostly no guidance, or even people who will help you deliver the job. But, you are expected to swim and get the job done.
This course, has taken the world of experience and learnings to manage existing and new projects. This knowledge is aligned to best practice based on the project management body of knowledge (PmBok). Information is harnessed from PmBok version 5 to version 7 and my own experience as a project management practitioner(PMP). This project management experience is drawn from engineering projects and Capital projects..
In this course, I will go through the processes, key concepts, the character of a project manager and the dynamics of a protect team. Then, discuss strategies as a PM you can employ for existing and new projects. It is inevitable that as PM you will face or you already facing an existing or new project. Your skills and competence as a PM will be exposed when delivering these type of projects.
Let me be the one help you to swim and effectively manage projects.

The instructor demonstrate deep understanding of the subject matter stemming from years of exposure in the Project related environment. Direct to the point presentation with practical examples. The self test at the end of each presentation allows for student to really test their understanding of the subject.
