Many non-profit making organisations manage change, expand and achieve organisational development through projects. This course will focus on providing the skills required to manage projects successfully. It will draw on good practice and theory and will include: linking projects to organisational strategy; defining and planning a project; managing stakeholders; managing risks; using project planning tools; monitoring and evaluating projects; the role of project manager; managing project teams and use of computers in project management.

This course can be tailored to meet your specific needs and delivered in-house.

Comments from previous courses:

“I found learning about critical paths within a project plan to be the most useful aspect of the workshop. I had used Gantt charts before but not this technique, which is clearer”

“I feel more confident that I have the strategies to manage projects more effectively”

“A very good teaching approach – friendly, easy to understand, related all frameworks/theories to our personal work. He made the teaching environment relaxed and conducive to interaction”

“I feel more motivated to ‘pin down’ my projected tasks and activities”

“I found the use of charts to illustrate the expected length of time for a project was particularly useful”
