Scoping and Scheduling Successful Projects

Learn the tools and techniques necessary to determine and deliver products, services, and results that meet requirements, expectations, and deadlines.

Accurately defining project scope sets the foundation for a successful project that accomplishes organizational needs. Research has shown that substandard requirements and scoping techniques often result in projects exceeding their planned budgets by as much as 200%. Additionally, generating a realistic schedule based on accurate resource and duration estimates troubles even the most the senior project managers. This course, based on PMI®’s PMBOK® Guide, Sixth Edition, provides participants with the tools and techniques to help them determine and deliver products, services, and results that meet requirements, expectations, and deadlines.
