Course overview

Time and money impose limits on project delivery. Planning has to work within those limits while accounting for quality, available resources and risk. The course examines estimates at different stages of a project and the methods used to calculate an overall timescale and cost plan that fits the project's constraints.

Estimates contain uncertainty. Delegates examine how to identify and analyse risks, establish proactive responses and use issue management when problems arise. Schedule and cost measurements then provide a basis for analysing variances and their effects. The outline also addresses reactive responses and corrective action to protect the agreed project limits.

Course objectives

By the end of the course, delegates will be able to:

  1. Estimate the time, cost and resources required for project work
  2. Develop an overall project schedule and cost plan
  3. Apply techniques for managing project risk
  4. Monitor and analyse project performance against time and cost plans
  5. Determine corrective actions that keep work within project limits
