Strategy & Tactics in Project Management ((3 Credits))

Catalog description

This Project Management certificate capstone course builds on the pre-requisite project management certificate courses. This course integrates the concepts and processes discussed in earlier courses by relating them to evaluating and implementing multiple projects within the framework of portfolio management, project management offices (PMOs), virtual project management, and project monitoring and assessment (Lean and Six Sigma). Students will also learn more about the human side of project management, including team building, managing virtual teams and developing and implementing effective project communications. They will do this by completing a variety of individual assignments, class discussions and a final capstone project. Special Course Materials: Graduate Studies is pleased to be able to provide required software (Microsoft Project) for this course.
