Project Planning and Control
X471.9 (3 semester units in Business Administration)
45 pdu: PMI provider #1173
A requirement in the Certificate Program in Project ManagementProject control is based on creating a proper plan, and creating the proper plan means having a clear understanding of what it takes to achieve that control. Using a project control model, this course shows that effective project management depends on the appropriate execution of activities such as estimating, planning, resourcing, communicating, engineering, measuring, tracking, reporting, and documenting. With additional control tools and techniques in hand, the course revisits planning and the plans from Project Management X470 to identify if and where upgrades should be made to enhance the likelihood that the planned projects will be controlled.
Prerequisite: Project Management X470.
