Overview |
Project management isn’t just for construction engineers and
military logistics experts anymore. Today, in addition to
the regular duties of your job, you are often expected to
take on extra assignments - and to get that additional job
done well, done under budget, and done on time. This
workshop is not intended to take you from a supervisory or
administrative position to that of a project manager.
However, these three days will familiarize you with the most
common terms and the most current thinking about projects. |
