This comprehensive 25-hour workshop on CD is designed to explore at a working level the fundamental processes of how to plan a project thoroughly and then manage the project to the plan (Program Control). This course is an introduction into the complex methodology of project planning and program control, laying the critical foundation for the processes to come. It is accompanied by an extensive suite of project problems and exercises.

Over half of this course time will be spent in solving problems using a realistic case study. For every major section of course material, there is a set of comprehensive problems that parallels this material.

This comprehensive 25-hour workshop on CD is designed to explore at a working level some of the processes of planning a project thoroughly and then managing the project to the plan (Program Control). This course follows in sequence the Project Planning & Program Control Processes – Part 1. It continues with the 11 step planning and program control process concentrating on: resource planning by attaching resource parameters to individual tasks. Then it looks at how to baseline the schedule and budget using our process of Reconciliation. It also examines of applying all these principles in the on-going project, reporting and risk management.

Over half of this course time will be spent in solving problems using a realistic case study. For every major section of course material, there is a set of comprehensive problems that parallels this material.

This comprehensive 25-hour workshop on CD is a follow-on course to " The Project Planning and Program Control Processes" courses and presumes an extensive knowledge of the processes of project planning and program control. It is designed to further explore at a working level the fundamental processes of how to plan a project thoroughly and then manage the project to the plan (Program Control). Two-thirds of your time will be spent in solving problems using an extensive, real world case study.

The course is divided into sections that parallel the fundamental process, and each of these sections is prefaced with a brief review of the principles covered in this portion of the course. Then the student is introduced to a series of problems to put into practice the pertinent processes. Answers to all material are provided in the workbooks and on the CD. Workbooks, handouts, and PMTs unique animated, narrated presentation CD are provided.

The comprehensive conclusion to PMTs Project Planning and Program Control Series. In the first two courses, the basic processes were introduced and explored in depth. Now, you are properly prepared to examine the more complex issues that are characteristic of large projects. Integration in all of its forms is the prime focus of the course. There is vertical integration for multi-tier scheduling and reporting. Horizontal integration is the structuring of the project model to correspond to the organizational breakdown of a large project, with many components and multiple contractors. Then, there is data integration, the principles and processes of linking and tracing essential project cost, schedule and other relevant project management data. Then, learn how to audit your database for any structural errors or problems – also learn to test your PM tool to insure the accuracy, consistency, and integrity of its critical calculations. Workbooks, handouts and PMTs unique animated, narrated presentation CD are provided.
