Project Management
Course Features
Leading from start to finish
The key to a successful project outcome is the planning that occurs before the work starts. The right strategies, implemented at the right times, can spell the difference between success and failure.
Our Project Management course equips participants with a powerful set of tools to plan, implement, and manage activities to realize specific objectives. Applicable to a wide range of businesses and professions, the ability to effectively manage projects is a skillset actively sought by employers and a career-advancing talent often called upon again and again.
Project Management can be taken as a standalone course or as a prerequisite for the Executive Certificate in Organizational Leadership.
All courses include:
Industry-leading faculty
Collaborative learning
Research-driven results
Lifelong connections
