Course description
A Practical Approach to Assessing and Managing Project Risk
Projects are initiated with partial user needs and requirements defined. Project managers are faced with the challenge to provide schedules, resources, and cost estimates based on incomplete project requirements or unclear criteria.
Following the principles and techniques outlined in the Project Management Institute’s Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK®) and other best practices, participants will be introduced to a structured approach. To achieve higher levels of predictability of the project outcome, this approach would be utilized to identify and mitigate different types of risks and opportunities associated with a project such as Technical, Security, Schedule, Financial, Quality and others.
