The Project Management Challenge: 70 Weeks in 3 Days

A Computer-Driven Simulation to Enhance Your Skills
 
Course: 917   Type: RealityPlus   Duration: 3 Days
 
 

A Different Way to Learn

An intensive computer-driven simulation presents project management obstacles that threaten to derail your project. Building a roller coaster that runs at hyper speeds with a true 90-degree track drop means a lot can go wrong. And it does. For project success, you must apply your project management knowledge to hurdle these unexpected bumps and steer the project to completion on time and within budget.

This course combines project management theory with practice. Immersed in a realistic setting, you gain invaluable experience applying project management tools and techniques in a fail-safe and risk-free environment. You learn how to maintain control in difficult circumstances and make decisions under complex situations amid uncertainty.

Sharpen Your Project Management Skills

Throughout this unique course, you practice and refine critical project management skills, including:
  • Outlining the project plan
  • Leadership
  • Overcoming obstacles
  • Decision making
  • Defining scope
  • Effective scheduling and budgeting
  • Managing risk
  • Handling change
  • Allocating resources

Who Should Attend

Managers who need a safe environment to practice their project management skills as well as experienced managers who want to refine their existing project management skill set. Project management experience at the level of Course 296, "Project Management: Skills for Success," or Course 340, "Project Management for Software Development," is assumed.

The Project Management Challenge: 70 Weeks in 3 Days

A Computer-Driven Simulation to Enhance Your Skills
 
Course: 917   Type: RealityPlus   Duration: 3 Days
 
 
Meet the Challenge
 
Just like in real life, this course presents obstacles that threaten to derail your project. Building a roller coaster that runs at hyper speeds with a true 90-degree track drop means a lot can go wrong. And it does. For project success, you must apply your project management knowledge to hurdle these unexpected bumps and steer the project to completion on time and within budget.

In this course, you apply project management theories and techniques to steer a complex, simulated project through all stages of development, including:

  • Overseeing all aspects of the project from the overall plan to the minute details
  • Identifying project requirements to effectively outline your project
  • Making decisions within teams to manage project costs and schedule
  • Defining scope with work breakdown structures (WBS)
  • Implementing a feasible project schedule and recalculating based on continual changes
  • Applying financial planning and cost-accounting techniques
  • Leveraging resources and capacity planning despite constraints
  • Managing risk and balancing conflicting priorities to ensure project success
  • Maintaining control of the project amid common setbacks and complexities
