Project management skills are critical for success in any working environment.

This includes overseeing the various tasks involved, monitoring progress, keeping track of resources, making sure deadlines are met and ensuring quality standards are upheld.

This outcome-focussed course will equip you and your project managers with all the essential skills they need to deliver on time, every time, to the highest standard.

What will you learn?

  • Participants on this course will learn how to:
  • Plan, execute and deliver projects
  • Engage with key stakeholders
  • Communicate well throughout a project
  • Identify risks in a project
  • Avoid common pitfalls
  • Use technology to manage tasks effectively

Who is it for?

This course is ideal for business owners, managers and team members who, as part of their job, regularly manage projects. It is also perfect for anyone looking to improve their organisation skills.

Cost and duration

This course lasts for one day and is delivered at the Aberdeen & Grampian Chamber of Commerce Training Hub by our approved expert trainers.
