Projects are temporary undertakings designed to produce a service, product, or particular result. Projects can vary from home improvement to a company’s new product roll-out. No matter the focus or specialization, there always needs to be a project manager. A project manager provides guidance, organization, motivation, and control to ensure that forward progress is made. The Project Management Certificate program provides students with the knowledge and skills to effectively manage projects. Students will learn how to identify and work with various stakeholders and understand project phases and lifecycles. They will learn how to plan, develop, monitor, and close a project while implementing a quality control process to ensure a high quality deliverable. The program length is 32 weeks.
In order to be an effective project manager, students will need to learn how to manage the scope of a project; how to complete projects on time and within budget; and how to consider and manage risks.
